[Verse 1]
[D]God[Bm] don'[A]t you [Em]thin[G]k
we should talk?
[Bm]I'm having trouble knowi[G]ng if
[A]you're [D]really [A]listening at all
If [Bm]there's a [A]hell you might [Em]as
[G]well mark a spot for my soul
If [Bm]there's a [G]god I'm [D]sorry for
[A]I won't pass the gates
I'm [Bm]not quite [A]sure if I
[Em]deserve [G]to wake up
[Bm]I want [G]to sleep [D]forever [A]if [D]it
[A]means never looking in the mirror

[Interlude 1]
[G][A]
[F#m]
[A]Son,[G]

[Verse 2]
[A]this is [F#m]not a [A]mountain tha[G]t
I've put [F#m]before you [A]to fall from
This is but a small peak that
I need you to [G]overcome

[Verse 3]
I didn't give light to this Earth [A]just to
watch you fall to the dark
[G][A]

[Verse 4]
[Em]I'm so sick of feeli[Bm]ng like I am[A]
A hol[G]low shell of the [A]one
that I know so well
[Em]We all seem to show our true
[Bm]colors mean the [A]most
[G]Only when we're seconds
from a [A]grave unmarked
[G]

[Verse 5]
If you [A]listen [F#m]for my[A][G][A][F#m][A]
voice, it will echo for [G]centur[A]ies
Everything beneath your feet the colors
to make the black and white fade
I [G]ex [F#m]ist in[A] al[G]l y[A]ou see[F#m][A]

[Verse 6]
[G]I didn't give light to this Earth
[A]just to watch you fall

[Verse 7]
[Em]I'm so sick of f[Bm]eeling like [A]I am
A hol[G]low shell of the [A]one
that I know so well
We [Em]all seem to show our true
[Bm]colors mean the [A]most
[G]Only when we're seconds
from a [A]grave unmarked

[Verse 8]
[Bm]I ne[A]ed som[Em]eone to [G]see
The dif[Bm]ference [G]between [A]who I
[D]am [A]and who I want to be[G]
[Em]Oh my go[G]d,
build me [A]as I'm meant to be

[Verse 9]
[G]Shattered son in the [Em]sea
Know that where you sink
Is tem[G]porary
Cause you'll rise and you'll [A]see
When you pass what you find
From the depths of your grave
Will end your [G]suffering

[Verse 10]
Carry [F#m]the cr[G]oss until
[G]your bones break
It's [Em]never too late to change
