[Intro 1]
[C5][C][Db5][C][C5][C][Bb5][C][C5][C][Db5][C][C5][C]

[Verse 1]
Surrounding [C5]me
is a picture of a world gone [C]wrong[Db5][C]
[C5]Paved with sickness and
the broken [C]young
[C5]Count the saved, count [C]the [Db5]graves[C]
[C5]Count the cuts and taste
the blood in the rain
They are the [Ab]worthless un[Db]forgiving
[C5]The murd[F]ered amongst the l[Ab]iving

[Verse 2]
[C5]So why spend your time
Waiting and [Ab]wishing and praying
[F]for a better [C5]liv i[F]ng
When you're force- fed [Ab]their decisions
[C5][C][C5][C][C5][C][C5]

[Verse 3]
[C]You[C5]'ll all just get[C]
[C5]bitten [F#5]again
[C5][C][C5][C][C5][C][C5][C][C5][C]

[Verse 4]
[C5]
[C]I c[C5]an't piece together the problems
I'm telling you to think for your[Db]self
[C]I c[C5]an't put peace in[C] the vio[Db]lence
[Db5]I'm not go[C]ing to[E5] fight i[C]t

[Verse 5]
[C5]I can feel the breath on the
back of my neck
I'm spitting blood to get your
voice out of my head
I'm [G]feeding [C5]on the pain
of the sick
The needle and the hospital [F]bed

[Verse 6]
We are [Ab]nothing like these [C5]creatures[F]
Guilty, scarred, I [Db]can't forget
[C5]You starve pride to feed
your [F]selfishness

[Verse 7]
We are [Ab]nothing like these [C5]creatures
[F]Guilty, scarred, I can[Db]'t forget
[C]You still [C5]feed the hunger leading
you to your death
You'll give it up when you've
got no time left
You're breeding in a national debt
You [C]starve pride to feed your [C5]selfishness[C][Db5]
[C5]

[Interlude 1]
[C][Bb5][C][C5][C][Db5][C][C5]
[C]Surrounding me

[Verse 8]
is a picture of
a world gone wrong
Paved with sickness and
the broken young
Count [G]the saved, count the [C]graves
[G]Cou[C]nt the cuts and taste the blood in
the [C5]rain

[Interlude 2]
[C][C5][C][C5][C][C5][C]
[C5]Have

[Verse 9]
we given up?
Should we hang the bastard young?
[C]To [C5]save them from the nothing
[C]that so [C5]many have become
[C][C5]

[Interlude 3]
[C][C5][C][G][C5][C][C5][G]
We're [C]all

[Verse 10]
dead [C5]behind the eyes
[C]We're just dreaming of a [C5]better [C]life
We're all dead [C5]behind the eyes
[C]We're just dreaming of a
[C5]better life

[Interlude 4]
[C][C5][C][C5]
[F]

[Verse 11]
We are [Ab]nothing like these [C5]creatures
[F]Guilty, scarred, I can't [Db]forget
[C]You sta[C5]rve pride to feed
your [C]selfishness
[C5]We a[F]re nothing[Ab] like these creature[C5]s[C]
[F]Guilty, scarred,
I [Db]can't forget

[Interlude 5]
[C][C][C][C]

[Verse 12]
I let the bastards surround [C]me[C][C]
[C]I let the bastards surrou[C]nd me[C]
[C]I let the bastards surround me
