[F#m] [A]
I'm giving up, I'm giving up slowly I'm blending in so you won't even know [E] me
Apart [A] from this whole world that shares my [D] fate
There's one [B] last rule you [D] mentioned My one last shot at [F#m] redemption
I know [E] to live you must give [B] your life away [F#m] And I've been housing all this doubt
[A] And in [E] security now I've [F#m] been locked inside that [D] house
[A] Although while you hold the [E] key I've [F#m] been dying [D] to get out
And that [A] might be the death of me and even [B] though
There's no way of knowing where [D] to go I promise [E] I'm going [A] because
I [E] gotta [D] get out of [E] here [A] I'm stuck inside [E] this rut that I [D] fell into by [E] mistake
[A] [E] I gotta [D] get out of [E] here [F#m] And I'm begging you, [E] I'm begging you, [B] I'm begging you [E] to be my [A] escape
I'm giving up, [B] I'm doing this alone now Because I failed and I'm ready to be [F#] shown how
You told me [E] the way and now I'm [B] trying to get [D] there
[A] And this [B] life sentence that I'm serving I admit that I'm every bit [F#m] disturbing
But the beauty [E] of grace is that it [B] makes life not fair
Because [F#] I've been housing all this doubt [A] And in security [E] now I've [F#m] been locked inside that [D] house
[A] Although while you hold the [E] key I've [F#m] been dying to [D] get out
And that [A] might be the death of [E] me and even [B] though
There's no way of knowing where [D] to go I promise [A] I'm going because
I [E] gotta [D] get out of [E] here [A] I'm afraid that this [E] complacency
[D] Is something I [E] can't shake [A] now [E] I gotta [D] get out of [E] here
[F#m] And I'm begging you, [E] I'm begging you, [D] I'm begging you to [E] be my [F#] escape
[D] Hostage to my own [A] humanity Self-detaining force [B] who live in [G#] this mess I've [F#m] made
And asking this [D] for you to do what you can [F#m] with me But I can't get you to give what [G#] you already [B] gave
Because [F#m] I've been housing all this [D] doubt [A] And in security [E] now I've [F#m] been locked inside that house
[A] Although while you hold the [E] key I've [F#] been dying to [D] get out
[A] And that might be the death of [E] me and even [B] though
There's no way of knowing where [D] to go I promise [A] I'm going because
[E] I gotta [D] get out of [E] here [A] I'm stuck inside [E] this rut that I [D] fell into by [E] mistake
[A] I [E] gotta [D] get out of [E] here [F#m] And I'm begging you, [E] I'm begging you, [D] I'm begging you to [E] be my [F#m] escape
[E]
[A] [D]
[F#m] [E] [D]
[F#m] I fought you [G] for so [D] long I should've let you [F#m] win
Oh how we [A] regret those [D] things we do
[F#m] And all [G]
I was [D] trying to do was save my own [F#m] skin
[A] But so [D] were you So
