In your head monsters call

In the air you find no one

Is there at all

But you keep them alive

Paralyzed you cannot run

You only crawl

[Chorus]

So find a new way to live

A# A Dm

Before you die in the cold

And though the sky's caving in

A# A Dm

The fear must not gain control

And do not worry my friend

A# A Dm

Or make this call by your sole

And find a new way to live

A# A Dm

Before your fate's set in stone

Will it come to an end?

What you fear you must confess

Is what you want

Will you ever survive

All the monsters of the mind

Where all is wrong?

It pulls me down like the heaviest of stone

And I am only flesh and bone

I can't take this anymore

{I just can't take this anymore}
