[Intro]
C#m F#m
It seems there’s no way to be mortal; I can’t find myself in any of the things I need to
A
do today
G#m
So I’ll be on my way
C#m F#m A G#m
Creep up when I’m trying to stand up and pull me back down; waste my day,
C#m F#m A G#m
Leave me, but don’t leave me alone. Sandbags under poisoned eyes
C#m F#m A
I don’t need your help, but I can’t do this on my own. I need support until this poison
G#m
dies
[Chorus]
A B E
One step onto solid ground can give you everything you need
A B E
Two steps give you battle eyes. The world falls to its knees
A B E
And if you keep the fight inside you, your heart may heal aswell
A B E
Hate for them can guide you to be free.
[Bridge]
E Fmaj7/E
[Verse 1]
C#m F#m A G#m
My heart is in the river. My conscience is aswell
C#m F#m A G#m
My face looks like I’m calm but I’m panicking, my girl
C#m F#m A G#m
There’s no more time to save my soul
C#m F#m A G#m
So I’ll sacrifice a pastor. I sacrifice a dancer.
C#m F#m A G#m
I went to the doctor. I said it’s killing me
C#m F#m A G#m
He said that I’m a bastard. I have no dignity
C#m F#m A G#m
I need to live my life in devout christianity
C#m F#m A G#m
But I’ve gone too far to believe
C#m F#m A G#m
But I’ve gone too far to believe
C#m F#m A G#m
Hmmmmmmm…..
[Chorus]
A B E
One step onto solid ground can give you everything you need
A B E
Two steps give you battle eyes. The world falls to its knees
A B E
And if you keep the fight inside you, your heart may heal aswell
A B E
Hate for them can guide you to be free.

I need to live my life in devout christianity
C#m F#m A G#m
