C E7 Am F G# A#

[Verse 1]
C                E7
I sleep by the window
 Am
I retreat inside myself
F                         G#
With the excess running down my cheek

[Verse 2]
                C
It's hard to breathe
                E7
I can't bear the usual
 Am              Am/G
Awful generations break
F                    G#
I see myself alone every week

[Chorus]
                C
It's hard to breathe
F                         E7
And as I watch you turn away
                 Am
I know that no tears that I've shed
              Am/G
And no words that I write
            F
And no poem that play
                  G#    G7 F#7 F7 E7
Will ever feel the same today

[Verse 3]
C                        E7
Sit, watching the grass grow
Am                      Am/G
Mistakes and second chances
F                  G#        A#
Squandered by a thoughtless hand

[Verse 4]
C
It burns beneath
                      E7
I can't feel my blood flow
Am                     Am/G
Watching, running free itself
F                       G#    A#
From a funny (?) making stale (?)

[Chorus]
           C
It burns beneath
F                         E7
And as I watch you turn away
                 Am
I know that no tears that I've shed
              Am/G
And no words that I write
            F
And no poem that play
                  G#    G7 F#7 F7 E7
Will ever feel the same today

[Solo]
C E7 Am Am/G F G# A#

[Chorus]
  F                   E7
And as I watch you turn away
             Am
I know that everything and
    Am/G          F            G#
Everything I worked for was not enough
   G7 F#7 F7 E7
I deserve no one
                   C  E7
And no one deserves me
