When the day begins [A] all the guilt sinks in [E] and I hope on the wreckage [G#] of the night
No one trying to break free, [A] the cycle breaks me [E] am I ever gonna [F#] see the light?
All the friends I've [A] lost in the pain I've [E] caused have never been [F#] enough just to make me stop
The lies I've [A] drawn to look at [E] myself turning [F#] into somebody [D] else
I know how [Bm] this will end [C#] I'm starting [F#]
[D] [Bm] inside out
[C#] Cause this life [E] takes me [A] nowhere, takes me nowhere, takes me nowhere

Cause this life takes me nowhere, [E] [C#] takes me nowhere
[E] [F#] Open up this scene [A] a familiar dream of you telling me what I [F#] already know
Though the truth seems big [A] and it's a long year [E] but you sure know where [F#] you're gonna go
