C Am F C
[Verse]
COh our story always starts so promising
CThen something will go awAmry
Yes soFmething will go awCry
What Cbegan ideal will simmer down to real
And these heights are not quite so hAmigh
No these heFights are not quite so higCh
CTo what do I choose to bAmind
To wFhat do I choose to bCind

Will it breFak or be embrCaced
Be it treAmasured or laid to waGste
Be it plFeasure or pain I tasCte
This is my hAmeart

Now the Cstorm ensues and I am overcome
Oh to stCruggle or be subAmdued
Oh to fiFght or be left to lCose

CBut to what do I hold oAmnto
But to whFat do I hold onCto
Though in piCeces I push on thrAmough
Oh to wFhat do I hold onCto
[Chorus]
Will it breFak or be embrCaced
Be it treAmasured or laid to waGste
Be it plFeasure or pain I tasCte

When the daFrkness lies in waCit
Or the Amlight promises to breGak
Be it hFeaven or hell I faCce
This is my hAmeart
This is my heaGrt
