[Verse]
Cm Ab
My mind's a kaleidoscope, it thinks too fast
Cm
Blurs all the colors 'til I can't see past
Ab Cm
The last mistake, the choice I made. Staring in the mirror with myself to blame
Ab Cm
Sometimes I'm afraid of the thoughts inside, nowhere to hide inside my mind
Ab Bb Cm
I'm scared that you'll compare and I'll look a lifetime past repair
Cm Eb Ab
I second guess myself to death, I re-solicit every step
Eb Bb Cm
What if my words are meaningless? What if my heart's misleading this?
Eb
I try to capture every moment as it comes to me
Ab
Bottle up the memories and let them keep me company
[Chorus]
Cm Gm Ab Eb
When the hope of morning starts to fade in me
Cm Gm Ab Eb
I don't dare let darkness have its way with me
Cm Gm Ab Eb
And the hope of morning makes me worth the fight
Fm Ab G
I will not be giving in tonight
[Verse]
Cm Ab
When I'm old and grey, or thirty, or whatever happens first
Cm Ab
I'll need you to reassure me I didn't waste a verse
Cm Ab
Or worse, what if my life's work is reduced to just myself
Cm Ab Bb
Like never let you get a word in, while I dissect my mental health
Cm Eb
Or lack thereof, whatever, there's too many things to track
Ab Bb
I really can't remember if I'm insane or insomniac
Cm Ab
Now days, all the kids want crazy, wanna diagnose themselves
Cm Ab
Trade up made up epidemics, pass around prescription pills
Cm Eb
But my disorder can't be cured by a bottle, blade, or dose
Bb Ab
Self-disgust and selfishness tend to hold me awfully close
Cm Eb
But I don't wanna let you see that, I don't want my friends to know
Bb Ab
Self-disgust and selfishness take me everywhere I go
[Chorus]
Cm Gm Ab Eb
When the hope of morning starts to fade in me
Cm Gm Ab Eb
I don't dare let darkness have its way with me
Cm Gm Ab Eb
And the hope of morning makes me worth the fight
Fm Ab G
I will not be giving in tonight
[Bridge]
Cm Gm Ab Eb
Try as I might to keep it together. Why is recovery taking forever
Cm Gm Ab Bb
Fool the whole world, just until I get better. I'm terrified I'll be faking forever
Cm Gm Ab Eb
On and on I wonder what went wrong inside my head. I don't have to have the answers, but tonight I wish I did
Cm Gm Ab Bb
All the pain I can't explain away won't fade. All the secrets silenced by the shame
Cm
Don't make me say it
Gm
Don't make me say it
Ab
Don't make me say it
Eb
Don't make me say it
Cm
Don't make me say it
Gm
Don't make me say it
Ab
Don't make me say it
Bb
Don't make me say it
[Chorus]
Cm Gm Ab Eb
When the hope of morning starts to fade in me
Cm Gm Ab Eb
I don't dare let darkness have its way with me
Cm Gm Ab Eb
And the hope of morning makes me worth the fight
Fm Ab G
I will not be giving in tonight
