(Verse 1)
Em C A
My eyes have adjusted to dark and so is my heart
Am Em
The weight of the world has covered me
C
I'm in over my head
A
Am I living or dead
C A
Can anyone hear me calling out
Am
I'm calling out
Em C
Finally breaking so where are you now
A
It's been such a long time
C
But I've tried to live without
Em C
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
A
So reach down and pull me up
C Em C A C Em
Pull me up before I am buried beneath
(Verse 2)
Em C
I built this house on the shore
A
All I want was more
Am Em
But I felt the sand start shifting

I saw the cracks in the walls
A
I painted over them all
C D A
I tried my best to just ignore
C
I can't ignore
Em C
Finally breaking so where are you now
A
It's been such a long time
C
But I've tried to live without
Em C
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
A
So reach down and pull me up
C Em C A C
Pull me up before I am buried beneath

Thought I was alone
Em C
But it pulls me deeper now
