[Verse 1]
I've opened up [Em]my sc[D]ars, I[Em]'ve released my past life[D][Em]
I've surrendered to a [D]rain [Em]that speaks
of a coming [D]storm[Em]
Looking back, did I ever [D]know [Em]how to look
at life and how to appreci[D]ate [Em]it?
Guess I was lost in a [D]time [Em]of taking things
for granted and not [D]looking [Dm]around
I was [C]lost in [Dm]myself, oh,
so [F]lost in [Em]myself

[Verse 2]
So today I'm [Em]left on [D]my own,
[Em]my recent days have all been the s[D]ame
[Em]My sanity will soon be c[D]onsumed
[Em]by this loneliness
[D]I'm[Em] lying in bed,
going out of my head
I'm lying in bed, going out of my head
I'm lying in bed, going out of my head
I'm lying in bed,

[Interlude 1]
going out of my head
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[Em]Standing at the door to a [C]place of my own
I will [D]not ask of you, what [B]you asked of me
I'll [Em]hide away from all the [C]reaching hands
So [D]that my past will [B]re main [Am]untold
I don't need your [B]helping [Am]hands
I'm sure I will [Bm]find my way [D]back[Am]

[Verse 4]
Like a raging storm, [Em]my past
keeps coming [D]on
[Em]Like a thousand daggers,
my memories [D]pierce [Em]me
My body and soul [D]unite [Em]in pain
It all [D]keeps in[C]creasing,
[Em]all up until it is [D]suddenly [Asus4]gone[Am]

[Verse 5]
[Am]The storm may be gone but it's not for long,
[C#m]it speaks to me[Am]
I'm granted just a short [C#m]embrace
of [G#m]rest a[C#m]n d peac[Am]e

[Verse 6]
I've lost the race [F]against my [Dm]past
[D]It'[Am]s come for me laughing,
to [F]make me pay at [D]last
[Am]Still all those years [F]speak to [Dm]me
[Am]I'll never open up and [F]bare my shame to you

[Interlude 3]

[Verse 7]
[Em]I've opened up the door
to a [C]place of my own
I did [D]not ask of you, what [Bm]you a[B]sked of me
I'll [Em]hide away from all the [C]reaching hands
So [D]that my past will [B]re main un[Bm]told[Em]
All through the [C]years I've been
walking [D]alone
Except for [Bm]the love [B]that
brought light in my [Em]life
I'll spare her this [C]me and
leave on [D]my own
With the [Bm]door [B]closed behind [Am]me

[Verse 8]
Was it [Bm]all a mis[B]take?[Am]
Should I have [Bm]listened to [Am]you?
All of [B]those helping hands
[Am]I kind of miss them now[Bm]
Now that they're [Em]gone
