I'm broken, I'm hoping for a reason to keep on going

I've chosen this moment to stop my self-erosion

Am C G F

I'm focused on owning, myself my own opponent

Am C G F

But in this moment that is falling apart, I keep thinking

Am C G F

Is the path I've chosen where I should start I keep sinking?

[Chorus]

Am C G F

I'm dying every second I'm alive, every second Im alive

Am C G F

I'm trying to feed the fire that inside, feed the fire thats inside

Am C G F

I'm dying every second I'm alive, this life's reflection in my eyes

Dm Am C G

Reminds me the scars made me stronger

Am C G F

[Verse 2]

Am C G F

I won't go quietly, won't let the past confine me

Am C G F

I don't know why I see what I've tried to put behind me

[Pre-Chorus]

Am C G F

But in this moment that is falling apart, I keep thinking

Am C G F

Is the path I've chosen where I should start I keep sinking?

Every second I'm alive I'm getting closer to my grave

I've tried my best to just survive, feels like I'm broken every day

I'm hoping that I make it, I'm open but I'm vacant

I'm closed inside this basement, time to try to fight to shake it

I'm shaking and I'm waiting, still debating on which way to go

G F

I'm swaying and I'm fading, no escaping, still afraid to know

Am C

Inside my thoughts are racing so I'm bracing for a weighted stone

G F

The world that's on my shoulders that I may just have to change alone

[Chorus]

Am C G F

I'm dying every second I'm alive, every second Im alive

Am C G F

I'm trying to feed the fire that inside, feed the fire thats inside
