[G]
[Em] [G]
[Em] I awoke only [G] to find my lungs empty
And [Em] through the night
So it [G] seems I'm not breathing
And [Em] now my dreams
Are nothing like they [G] were meant to be
And [Em] I'm breaking down
I think [G] I'm breaking down
And [Em] I'm afraid
To sleep [G] because of what haunts me
[Em] Such as
Living [G] with the uncertainty
[Em] That I'll never find the words to [G] say
Which would completely [Em] explain
Just how [G] I'm breaking down
[D]
Someone [Em] come and
Someone [C] come and save my life
Maybe [D] I'll sleep when [Em] I am
But [C] now it's like the night is taking sides
[D] All [Em] the worries that occupy [C] the back of my mind
[D] Could it be [Em] this misery [C] will suffice?
[Em] [G]
[Em] [G]
[Em] I've become
A simple [G] souvenir of someone's care
And [Em] like the sea
I'm constantly [G] changing from calm to ill
[Em] Madness fills my heart and [G] soul
As if the great divide could swallow [Em] me whole
Oh how I'm [G] breaking down
[D]
Someone [Em] come and
Someone [C] come and save my life
Maybe [D] I'll sleep when I am
But now [C] it's like the night is taking sides
[D] All the worries that occupy [C] the back of my mind
[E] Could it be this misery [C] will suffice?
Oh [D] will I?
[Em] [C]
[D] [Em]
[D] [C]
[E] [C]
[G]
[Em] [G] [D]
Someone come and
Someone come [C] and save my life
[E] Someone come and
Someone come [C] and save my life
[D] I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming [C] to save my life
Could [D] it be this misery will [C] suffice?
