F C G Am

Everyone's hoping you can hold off the attack

F C G Am

They keep telling you that you should just relax

F C G Am

But if they knew how that sounded to you

F C G Am

They would know that it's something you can't do

F C G Am

Everybody's telling you everything's gonna be OK

F C G Am

They keep saying tomorrow's another day

F C G Am

But if they knew how that sounded to you

F C G Am

They would know why you know that that's not true

F C G Am

They would know why you know that that's not true

F C G Am

Everyone's saying it's not as bad as it seems

F C G Am

They keep talking but you don't know what they mean

F C G Am

And if they knew how that sounded to you

F C G Am

They'd be alone at home and locked inside their rooms

F C G Am

Everyone's telling you the reasons you should live

F C G Am

They keep saying that you got so much to give

F C G Am

But if they knew how that sounded to you

F C G Am

It would break their hearts in two

F C G Am

It would break their hearts in two

F C G Am

But they don't know, they don't know, they don't know

F C G Am

So they'll keep talking and wasting their breath

F C G Am

They don't know how to save your sorry soul

F C G Am

So they'll keep talking till there's no words left

F C G Am

They'll keep talking till there's no words left
