Intro: Dm Bb Dm F/A Bb A/C#
Verse 1:
Dm
Trying to create something
Bb
that's not there
Dm
A spark I saw as a bomb is
F/A Bb A/C#
just a means to an end
Dm
And I was just so happy
Bb
to be out of my shell again
Dm
don't think that I really
F/A
cared for who or what
Bb
So for now I'll just
A/C#
have to keep it shut
Refrain:
Dm
If you're not ready
Bb
you're not ready
Dm F/A
Please stop acting
A/C#
like you are
Dm Bb
How could I know
Gm
that everything you say
are lies about
A
devotion and desire?
Dm Bb
And I know the spark
Gm
inside your eyes
was just the match I
A
used to set myself on fire
Post Chorus: Dm
Verse 2:
Dm
My mouth's shooting blanks
Bb
Situation's unbearable
I've gotten vulnerable
Dm F/A
Now anyone is free to waltz right in
Bb
My temple's been invaded
A/C#
and there's nobody guarding it
Dm Bb
All over this lonely life
Dm
but what's so wrong
F/A
with being all alone?
Bb
Alone is the only way
A/C#
I've ever known
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Post Chorus)
Guitar Solo: Dm Bb Dm F/A A/C# (2x) Dm A/C# Bb A/C#
Bridge:
Dm A/C#
Now pleading this kills
Bb
it still bleeding
A/C# Dm
My darling I'm taking
A/C# Bb
my life back to
A/C#
start healing
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro:
Dm
Set my self on fire
