Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A5][F][A5][Dm][G][A5][F][A5][Dm][G]
[A5]
[Am][A5][G][A5]

[Verse 1]
I fought [A5]who I a[F]m [G]in s[A5]ide
Until I wanted, I wanted to die
Instead of finding balance I
found [F]hatred[A5]
Consumed by failures and ignoring
my own strengths
Pushed out to [G]sea [A5]without
the legs to [F]swim
Or [G]stranded in the [F]desert with
no lungs to breathe
[G]

[Verse 2]
[A5]
With no lungs to breathe
I had almost lost everything
With no lungs [Am]to
[A5]brea[Am]the[A5]
I had almost lost everything
[Am]How

[Verse 3]
[F]can I be expected
[G]to readily be content
[A5]With a view of life that has rejected
[Am]The [A5]basis of what has helped me[Am]
[A5]to sur v[G]iv[A5]e?

[Interlude 1]
[A5][Am][A5]

[Verse 4]
(What has [A5]helped me to survive)

[Verse 5]
And replaced [A5]them with pre[F]cepts[G]
[A5]Rather than instruction
Full rule is an [F]illusion (illusion)
All I [Am]can [G]do is contain selfishness
And [F]un [A5]veil [G]what [Am]little power
[G]we may hav[A5]e

[Verse 6]
With no [A5]lungs to [Am]breathe[A5]
I had almost lost everything
With no lungs [Am]to
[A5]brea[Am]the[A5]
I had almost lost [Em]everything[G][Em]
[C](ev[G]ery[Em]thin[F]g)[Am][A5]

[Verse 7]
Tearing [C]away [Em]my fles[G]h[A5]
[F]Before [A5]taking the time to
under[F]stand [G]it[A5]
A mir[Em]acle [C]may not be [G]the
[Em]answ[F]er
(Tearing away [A5]my flesh)
When anchoring [C]first [Em]on what
I [G]have[A5][F]
(Before taking [A5]the t[F]ime to
un[A5]derstand [G]it)[A5]

[Interlude 2]
The ability to change
[A5][F][G][Am][A5][Am][A5]
[G][A5][F][G][A5][Am][A5]
[F][G][A5][F]

[Verse 8]
Like being [G]stranded in the [F]desert
With no lungs [G]to breathe
[C]

[Verse 9]
[A5]
With no lungs to [Am]breathe[A5]
I had almost lost everything
With no lungs to [Am]breathe[A5]
I had almost lost

[Outro 1]
everything (everything)
[A5][A5]
