Em   Em7         A7       Am7
     Learning to breathe again
        Em     Em7     A7       Am7
for the first time, in so long now
Em   Em7         A7       Am7 
     Learning to see again
        Em     Em7     A7       Am7
through my pride
Em   Em7         A7       Am7
     Learning to speak again
Em     Em7         A7       Am7
           from my heart

Learning to be a friend
for the first time
for the first time
in so long
for so long (x7)

Feel like I'm losing time
when I worry
'cos yesterday won't change
Starting to free my mind
from the shadow of doubt
that keeps me in darkness

testing the air outside
my chamber
into the danger
pushing my limits high
to the red line and over
and why have i waited
so long

for so long (x6)
oh
why have I waited?
why have I waited, yeah

well it's hard to be happy
in a world that's so cruel
where the weak just get weaker
where the powerful feud
where the children go hungry
while the soldiers stand by
lay down your weapons
take hold of your lives
and when will we learn
that it's hate that breeds hate
only love is the cure
don't leave it too late
get up, and feel it
the truth that won't wait
if we choose to do nothing
then we take all the blame
