[Verse]
G D
I don't have a leg to stand on
Bm F#m
Spinning like a whirlwind nothing to land on
G D
Came so far never thought it'd be done now
Bm F#m
Stuck in a holding pattern waiting to come down
G
Did somebody else define me?
D
Can I put the past behind me?
Bm
Do I even have a decision
F#m
Feeling like I'm living in a story already written
G
Am I part of a vision made by somebody else?
D
Pointing fingers at villains but I'm the villain myself
Bm
Or am I out of conviction with no wind in the sail?
F#m G
Too focused on the end and simply ready to fail
[Chorus]
G D G Bm
'Cause I'm tired of the fear that I can't control this
G
I'm tired of feeling like every next step's hopeless
D Bm
I'm tired of being scared what I build might break apart
G F#m G
I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to start
D Bm
Oh, oh, oh oo
F#m G D
I don't want to know the end, all I want is a place to start
Bm F#m
Oh, oh
