Intro: Em  D  G  D  Am  B (2x)
       Em  Am  G  B (4x)

Em         Am     G      B
Now is the climax to the story
     Em        Am         G      B
That gives the demons and angels purpose
Em       Am           G      B
They fly around while we are walking
    Em        Am      G       B          C
And mold our emotions just to please them

     D             Em
I am cold, can you hear
       G         B            C
I will fly, with no hope, no fear
        D                 Em
And the ground, taunts my wings
             G     D
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I sing

B                Em
All we are is an isle of flightless birds
            Am                              G
We find our worth in giving birth and stuff
                                       B
We're lining our homes against winding roads
                                
And we think the going is tough
   Em                               Am
We pick songs to sing, remind us of things that no body cares about
    G                            B
And honestly we're probably more suicidal than ever now
Em                      Am                                        G
If you decide to live by, what you think's wrong and what's right
                                         B
Believe me you'll begin to wish you were sleeping
                                           Em
Your weeping will creep in head and you'll cry
                        Am                           G
But if we wake up every morning and decide what we believe
                       B                                     Em  Am G B
We can take a part our very heart and the light will set us free

C    D             Em
I am cold, can you hear
       G         B            C
I will fly, with no hope, no fear
          D               Em
And the ground, taunts my wings
             G     D             C
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I

     D             Em
I am cold, can you hear
       G         D           C
I will fly, with no hope, no fear
          D               Em
And the ground, taunts my wings
             G     D
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I

    C
How frustrating, and so degrading
                       D
His time, we're wasting
                                                             Em
And time will fly by and the sky will cry as light is fading

And he is waiting, oh so patiently
         G                                  D
While we repeat the same routine as we will please comfortability
C
Please think about why you can't sleep in the evening
    D
And please don't be afraid of what your soul is really thinking
Em
Your soul knows good and evil, your soul knows both sides
         G                        D
And it's time you pick your battle, and I promise you this is mine
