[C#] [Bm] [A] [D]
[F#m] [Bm] [A] [D]
[F#m] I'm [Bm] on an island by my lonesome [A] stranding, low key and [D] staying candid

And the [D] tears after losing the feelings [F#m] of what you thought love was
[Bm] Like the dirt still up [A] under the rug
My life [D] be like bad [F#m] characteristics covered in Christ's [Bm] blood
Enjoying through work [A] and the pain [D] of growing up
The bliss between giving [F#m] my all and giving up
[Bm] The highs and lows, [A] paths and [D] roads I've chosen
And cold I froze, trying to ease my woes
[Bm] In this world of sin, [A] closed looped [D] in
Defends on the God I sinned, [F#m] words of help but when

And I [F#m] believe in the kingdom [Bm] coming
I [A] believe if you seek the truth
[D] You don't need to look [F#m] far, cause it's gonna find [D] you
So why, oh why do I tremble, [Bm] sleep
And ooh [A]-ah's commitment [D] crumbles
