My life
charred remains of a flame that’s burned out
my lips move but they won’t make a sound
I stand motionless, eyes to the ground
F#sus2
back for more
Esus2
with reopened scars I remain
Dsus2
battered savagely, knees start to shake
C#
I just stand there, I take it, I wait
[Chorus]
Dsus2 Esus2
I’m just waiting for time to erase
F#sus2 Asus2 Dsus2
and the world to change
Esus2 F#sus2
until then I will strive for nothing more
Dsus2 Esus2
I’ll just wait for my heart to break
F#sus2 Asus2 Dsus2 Esus2
and arise from ash, reborn,
F#sus2
reborn

look at me
cut my eye and allow me to see
what my life has become on my knees
I hear the screams, I watch myself bleed
but I can’t feel a thing
F#sus2
what am I
Esus2
but a victim unwilling to rise
Dsus2
wretched shell of a man and his pride
C#
why stop living, I’m just waiting to die
[Chorus]
