Verse 1 
Am                             C 
I scraped my knees when I was praying 
Dm                  G 
And found a demon in my safest haven, seems like  
Am                       C 
It's getting harder to believe in anything  
Dm                      G 
And just to get lost in all my selfish thoughts  
Am  			   C 
I wanna know what it'd be like  
Dm			   G 
To find perfection in my pride  
			Am				 
To see nothing in the light?  
	     C		    Dm 
But turn it off In all my spite  
            G 
In all my spite I'll turn it off  

Chorus 

C   		   G 
And the worst part is  
		Am 
Before it gets any better  
     F 
We're heading for a cliff  
C                    G 
And in the free fall I will realize  
Am                     F 
I'm better off when I hit the bottom

Verse 2 

Am			C 
The tragedy it seems unending  
Dm			G 
I'm watching everyone I looked up to break and bending  
Am			C 
We're taking short cuts and false solutions  
Dm		 G 
Just to come out the hero  
Am			   C 
Well I can see behind the curtain  
Dm			          G 
The world's cranking, turning, so wrong the way we're working  
Am			C 
Towards a goal, that's nonexistent  
Dm	            G 
It's nonexistent, but we just keep believing

And the worst part is  
		Am 
Before it gets any better

I'm better off when I hit the bottom
