verse 1
C#m
My feet keep walking straight,
A F#m
even though I'm terrified
C#m
Don't know what is coming next
A F#m
How to make it through the night
C#m
I've been riding my own fear,
A F#m
'Cause I hear them breathing near
C#m
I must confess my innocence
A F#m
Escape the animal eyes
Pre-Chorus
A B
Isn't it true? Nobody knows
C#m
Somebody ran, somebody crawled
No one to blame, you're on your own
A E B
Somebody's gonna make you scream
C#m
Somebody wept and somebody howled
No one to save you, pray for dawn
A E B C#m
Somebody's, somebody's gonna make you scream

Reveal(s) my naked lie
