Bm Gb G
Bm Gb G
[Verse 1]
Bm Gb G
I built these walls with blinders on my eyes
Bm Gb G Em Gb
Brick by brick and now I realize
[Chorus]
G D
That I'm shut out, I'm shut in
Gb G D
And every time I try to reach out I reach in
Gb G
I break my fingers on the bricks
Em
Why do I do this to myself?
Gb
There is really no one else to blame
Bm A E7 G
So could you reach down and pull me out
Em Gb G
Or am I just too far gone to be saved?
Em Gb Bm Gb G
Or am I just too far gone to be saved?
[Instrumental]
Bm Gb G
[Verse 2]
Bm Gb G
I take my falls, hands pulled behind my back
Bm Gb G Em Gb
You made the knot and didn't leave much slack
[Chorus]
G D
Now I'm tied up, I'm tied down
Gb G D
Now every time I try to fly up, I fly down
Gb G
Into the sea and hold my breath
Em
I am a mirrored rumble fish
Gb
Life is so clenching for the kill
Bm A E7 G
So could you reach down and break my will
Em Gb G
Or am I just too far gone to be saved?
Em Gb Bm A E7 G
Or am I just too far gone to be saved?

Gb G D
Now every time I try to fly up, I fly down
Gb G
Into the sea and hold my breath
Em
I am a mirrored rumble fish
Gb
Life is so clenching for the kill
Bm A E7 G
So could you reach out and pull me out
Em Gb
Or am I just too far gone?
Em Gb
You'll never be too far gone
Em Gb
You'll never be too far gone to be saved
