[Em] I awoke only to [G] find my lungs empty
[Em] the night, so it seems [G] I'm not breathing
[Em] my dreams are nothing [G] like they were meant to be
[Em] breaking down, I think I'm [G] breaking down
[Em] I'm afraid to sleep because [G] of what haunts me
[Em] Such as living with [G] the uncertainty
[Em] [G]

[Em] breaking down, I think I'm [G] breaking down
[Em] I'm afraid to sleep because [G] of what haunts me
[Em] Such as living with [G] the uncertainty

[Em] I awoke only to [G] find my lungs empty
And through [Em] the night, so it seems [G] I'm not breathing
And now [Em] my dreams are nothing [G] like they were meant to be
And I'm [Em] breaking down, I think I'm [G] breaking down
And [Em] I'm afraid to sleep because [G] of what haunts me
[Em] Such as living with [G] the uncertainty _
[Em] That I'll never find the words to say
[G] Which would completely [Em] explain
_ Just how I'm [G] breaking down
_ [D] _
Someone [Em] come and, someone [C] come and save my life
Maybe [D] I'll sleep [Em] when I am dead
But now [C] it's like the night has taken its sides
[D] All the [Em] worries that occupy [C] the back of my mind
[D] Could it [Em] be this misery [C] will suffice?
I've [Em] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _

[Em] become a simple [G] souvenir of someone's kill
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
