Breathe

Am   C              F     Em
I am strong when I'm quiet
Am       C                 F   Em
I never let you see me stall
     Am              C            F   Em
I can hate what you say and still smile
Am   C              F    Em
Only play on an open court

Am            C            F   Em
I am the ringleader of my own circle
Am          C                 F   Em
Fall on my knees and I won't bleed
Am         C             F       Em
Set me on fire and I'll fall to sleep
Am               C         F   Em
The pain of my scolds sets me free

          Am    C    F  Em
I can not Breathe (yeah)
          Am    C    F  Em
Let me be free (yeah) from myself

Am           C           F           Em
Drown me in silence and suddenly I'm floating
Am           C            F  Em
I rip me apart with one look
Am      C          F            Em
Use my heart as a crutch for my ego
Am               C                F  Em
And hope that I never never fall in love

          Am    C    F  Em
I can not Breathe (yeah)
          Am    C           F  Em
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
          Am    C    F  Em
I must survive
          Am         C            F  Em
This wonderful punishment called life


Am      C         F      Em
Use my heart and unravel it
Am      C        F      Em
My innocence is all gone
Am     C       F        Em
Torn apart and I can't handle it
Am      C        F      Em
My innocence is all gone


          Am    C    F  Em
I can not Breathe (yeah)
          Am    C           F  Em
Let me be free (yeah) from myself
          Am    C    F  Em
I must survive
          Am         C            F  Em
This wonderful punishment called life
          Am    C                 F  Em Am
This wonderful punishment called life
