The night is deafening when the silence is listening
Fsus2(maj7) Fsus2(maj7)
And I'm down and my knees, and I know that something is missing
C C
Because the back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in
Cadd9 G6
But I choose to ignore it because I'm always denying them
C C
I'm a bit of a manic when it's not as I plan
Fsus2(maj7) Fsus2(maj7)
Cause I start losing my head and then I get up in a panic
C C
Remember when we were kids and always knew when to quit it
Cadd9 G6
Are we denying a crisis or are we scared of admitting it
Dm Dm
I don't want to know
F G
I just want to run to you
C Am Am7
And break off the chains, and throw them away
F G
I just want to be so much
C Am Am7
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust
F F G G
Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour
F Cmaj11
I'll need a saviour
C C
It won't ever change if you want it to stay the same
Fsus2(maj7) Fsus2(maj7)
I really hate it but I know it's hard to choose if you're chained
C C
And when it's all you control cause you've got nothing else to hold
Cadd9 G6
You're getting tighter and tighter, it's getting harder to let it go
Dm Dm
I don't want to know
F G
I just want to run to you

And break off the chains, and throw them away

Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour

I'll need a saviour

Stand me up and maybe I won't be so small
G F F
Free my hands and feet and maybe I won't always fall
