And then I found out how hard it is to really change
Even hell can get comfy once you've settled in
I just wanted the numb inside me to leave
No matter how fucked you get, it's always there when you come back down
The funny thing is, all I ever wanted, I already had
There's glimpses of heaven in every day
In the friends that I have, the music I make
The love that I feel... I just had to start again

( Em  C  Am  Em )

Em
The days are a death wish 
C
A witch hunt for an exit 
Am           Em         ( D )
I am powerless

Em
The fragile, the broken 
C
Sit in circles and stay unspoken 
Am              Em      ( D )
We are powerless

                     Em
Because we all walk alone on an empty staircase 
C
Silent halls and nameless faces 
Am          Em          D
I am powerless

Am
Everybody wants to go to Heaven 
C
But nobody wants to die 
Am
I can't fear death no longer 
         C                      ( Am )
I've died a thousand times 

Am
Why explore the universe
           C
When we don't know ourselves? 
                    Am
There's an emptiness inside our heads 
( Am )
That no-one dares to dwell

Em                 C
Throw me to the flames! 
              Am                Em
Watch me burn! 
Em              C
Set my world ablaze! 
              Am                Em
Watch me burn! 

C
How are we on a scale of one to ten? 
Am
Could you tell me, what you see? 
C
Do you want to talk about it? 
D
How does that make you feel? 

C
Have you ever took a blade to your wrists? 
Am
Have you been skipping meals? 
C
We're going to try something new today 
C               Am            Em
How does that make you feel? 

Em                      D
Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (burn) 
C                       Am
Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (burn) 
Em                      D
Hold me close, don't let go, watch me (burn) 
C                       Am
In this hospital for souls                 

( Em )
