[G#m] [D#m] [F#] [E]
[C#m] I had a way [B] [F#] then, losing [C#m] it all on my own
I had a heart [F] [F#] then, but the queen [B] has been [C#m] overthrown
And [G#m] I am not sleeping [B] [F#] now
[E] The dark is too [C#m] hard to beat
And I'm [G#m] not keeping [B] up
[E] The strength I need to push me
You [G#m] show the lights that stop [F#] me
Time to stop
[E] You strike me when [C#m] I'm lost
And [G#m] slow it down when we stop
[F#] That I'll be [E] strong
Treat me when [C#m] they're gone
Cause [G#m] they're calling, calling, [F#] calling me [E] home
Calling, calling, [C#m] calling home
[G#m] You show the lights that stop [F#] me
Time to stop
[E] You strike me when [C#m] I'm lost
[E] Voices, [F#] I play [E] within my [C#m] head
[G#m] Touch my own [F#] skin
And hope [E] to still be [C#m] there
[G#m] And I think back [B] to [F#] when
[E] My brother and [C#m] my sister
Tapped [G#m]
in a [B] [F#] place
[E] The only time I [C#m] feel safe
You [G#m] show the lights that stop me
[F#] Time to stop
[E] You strike me when [C#m] I'm lost
And [G#m] slow it down when we stop
[F#] That I'll be strong
[E]
Treat me when [C#m] they're gone
Cause [G#m] they're calling, calling, [F#] calling me home
[E]
Calling, calling, [C#m] calling home
You [G#m] show the lights that stop me
[F#] Time to stop
[E] You strike me when [C#m] I'm lost
[G#m]
[F#] Lost, [E]
[C#m] lost, [G#m]
[F#] lost
[E] You [C#] [G#m] show the lights that stop me
[F#] Time to stop
[E]
You strike me when [C#m] I'm lost
And [G#m] slow it down when we stop
That [F#] I'll be [E] strong
Treat me when [C#m] they're gone
Cause [G#m] they're calling, calling, [F#] calling me home
[E]
Calling, calling, [C#m] calling home
You [G#m] show the lights that stop me
[F#] Time to [E] stop
You strike me when [C#m] I'm lost
[G#m]
Lost, [F#] lost, [E]
[C#m] [G#m] lost
