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

my life back to
