Verse 1:
C#m
Trying to create something
A
that's not there
C#m
G# spark I saw as a bomb is
E/G# A G#/C
just a means to an end
C#m
And I was just so happy
A
to be out of my shell again
C#m
don't think that I really
E/G#
cared for who or what
A
So for now I'll just
G#/C
have to keep it shut
Refrain:
C#m
If you're not ready
A
you're not ready
C#m E/G#
Please stop acting
G#/C
like you are
Chorus:
C#m A
How could I know
F#m
that everything you say
are lies about
G#
devotion and desire?
C#m A
And I know the spark
F#m
inside your eyes
was just the match I
G#
used to set myself on fire
Post Chorus: Dm(hold)
Verse 2:
C#m
My mouth's shooting blanks
A
Situation's unbearable
I've gotten vulnerable
C#m E/G#
Now anyone is free to waltz right in
A
My temple's been invaded
G#/C
and there's nobody guarding it
C#m A
All over this lonely life
C#m
but what's so wrong
E/G#
with being all alone?
A
Alone is the only way
G#/C
I've ever known
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat Post Chorus)

Now pleading this kills

My darling I'm taking

my life back to
A/C#-- (hold)

(Repeat Chorus)
