Trying to create something
G
that's not there
Bm
F# spark I saw as a bomb is
D/F# G F#/A#
just a means to an end
Bm
And I was just so happy

to be out of my shell again
Bm
don't think that I really
D/F#
cared for who or what
G
So for now I'll just
F#/A#
have to keep it shut
Refrain:
Bm
If you're not ready
G
you're not ready
Bm D/F#
Please stop acting
F#/A#
like you are
Chorus:
Bm G
How could I know
Em
that everything you say
are lies about
F#
devotion and desire?
Bm G
And I know the spark
Em
inside your eyes
was just the match I
F#
used to set myself on fire
Post Chorus: Dm(hold)

My mouth's shooting blanks

Situation's unbearable
I've gotten vulnerable

Now anyone is free to waltz right in

My temple's been invaded
F#/A#
and there's nobody guarding it
Bm G
All over this lonely life
Bm
but what's so wrong
D/F#
with being all alone?
G
Alone is the only way
F#/A#
I've ever known
(Repeat Refrain)
