[Intro]
Am F G x2
[Verse]
Am
I'm down below where the floor is out of focus,
F G
pent up and played down, rained in and worn out
Am
Picking away at the studs in the boards
F G
They're all too familiar, I've been here before.
Am
The air is like lead and I've swallowed what I've said.
F G
I'm a broken machine and a match already burned.
Am
And I'm quiet, all despite the raging in my head
F G
Collapsed inside and out until my strength can return.
[Chorus]
Dm Am C G
I'm undone. All I know is the weight of the world, so empty and so
Dm Am C G
uninspired. Sorrow and sleep and disbelief, caught up in the weight of
Am
the world.
[Interlude]
Am F G x1
[Verse]
Am
I'm down below where it's silent and it's safe,
F G
resounding with the question of "Where to, from here?"
Am
I know my direction, I know what it takes,
F G
but I'm weak and I'm weightless with everything to fear.
Am
I write about what's real to me when all I feel is make believe,
F G
but I won't say there's nothing left, there's everything, but just out
Am
of reach.
[Chorus]
Dm Am C G
I'm undone. All I know is the weight of the world, so empty and so
Dm Am C G
uninspired. Sorrow and sleep and disbelief, caught up in the weight of
Am
the world.
[Bridge]
C G Dm
But I'm not helpless;
C G F
I'm not hopeless.
C G Dm C G Am
But I don't believe in hope on it's own, no spine and no substance.
[Chorus]
Dm Am C G
I'm undone. All I know is the weight of the world, so empty and so
Dm Am C G
uninspired. Sorrow and sleep and disbelief, caught up in the weight of
Am
the world.
[Outro]
Am F
It's time to see the floor sink around me, pushed down with my two bare hands and
Am F G
now I'm stronger for whatever comes. Let the blood rush, as I rise to
Am
my feet.
