Verse 1:
       G                        Csus2
We're waiting for something to happen
                 G                       D
But nothing is snapping us out of this trance
    G                       Csus2
Our eyelids are heavy, and soon, we're all ready
     G                   D
To obey every single command

Pre-Chorus:
            Em               D
But I feel lost, no map in front of me
    C
And I don't know which way is up
 D                         Em
Wishing we could just hit pause
       D
Just enough to breathe
      C
Oh, why can't I shake you
  D
Awake from this dream?


Chorus:
         Csus2        G        D
I never wanted to disturb the peace
        Csus2               G    D
But it feels like no one's listening
        Em      C     G      D
Are we talking to ourselves?
             Em      C     D
Are we just talking to ourselves?


Verse 2:
G                 Csus2          G
 I'm so good at spеaking out of turn
             D
And talking back, I have some nervе
G            Csus2
 If I said this all to your face
G                 D                   Em
 Forgive me, sometimes, I forget my place


Pre-Chorus:
              D
So what's it gonna be?
          C
Will you dig in or give up?
 D                   Em
Lean in or just get lost?
        D
Drift away from here
        C
This demands your attention
    D
So hear me when I say


Chorus:
         Csus2        G        D
I never wanted to disturb the peace
        Csus2               G    D
But it feels like no one's listening
        Em      C     G      D
Are we talking to ourselves?
             Em      C     D     Csus2    Em    D
Are we just talking to   our----selves?


Bridge:
                       Csus2    Em     D   Csus2   D
What are we trying to say?
               Csus2
And tell me, what would it take
       Em
To pry open their eyes?
         D
I would wade in the water
       D
I'll stand in the fire
      Csus2      Em    D
I am not afraid
              Csus2
And I would break down the door
        Em
If you give me the sign
          D
For the chance to be yours
         D
I would lay down my life
      Csus2      Em    D
I am not afraid


Instrumental:
| Csus2  | Csus2  | D  | D  |


Chorus:
                 Csus2        G        D
I swear I never wanted to disturb the peace
        Csus2               G    D
But it feels like no one's listening
        Em      C     G       D
Are we talking to ourselves?
              Em      C     D     Csus2
Yeah, are we talking to   our----selves?
