Verse 1:
 
C
Lies are like stones, they sink in
Am
Pull in the air you're breathing
G
You can keep it inside
F C
The devil will reside if you let him
C
Our hearts are all barricaded
Am
And the poisons will decorate it
G
I wanna know love
F C
I wanna be where you are
 
Pre-chorus:
 
Am
So show me the way
G
I wanna be like that
C F
I wanna hear you call my name and not look back
 
[Refrão]
C
Cause all the faint lights
G
They left me stranded and lost
Am F C
Reaching through empty pockets trying to pay my cost
C
I put up a fight
G
But now it's taking its toll
Am F
I'm waiting for something to set fire
C
Wake up my soul
 
Verse 2:
 
All the people are trapped on freeways
With signs that say "Have it your way"
C
But we all lost track as soon as we got control

So show me the way
I wanna be like that
I wanna hear you call my name and not look back

Cause all the faint lights

They left me stranded and lost

Reaching through empty pockets trying to pay my cost

I put up a fight

But now it's taking its toll

I'm waiting for something to set fire

Wake up my soul

Am G
When the weight is on, I feel alone

Trapped inside my flesh and bones
Am G
But if I let go of everything
C F
The stars compose a song to sing
 
Outro:

A song for all the faint lights
G
They left me stranded and lost

Reaching through empty pockets trying to pay my cost

I put up a fight

But now it's taking its toll
Am F
I'm waiting for something to set fire
 
Wake up my soul
