[Intro]
        x2


[Verse 1]
           
Do you know wh

             
at's worth fig

     
hting for,
           
When it's not 

           
worth dying fo

r?
           
Does it take y

         
our breath awa

y
             
And you feel y

            
ourself suffoc

ating?
           
Does the pain 

            
weigh out the 

pride?
           
And you look f

            
or a place to 

hide?
           
Did someone br

             
eak your heart

 
 inside?
             
You're in ruin

[Verse 2]
           
When you're at

             
 the end of th

 
e road
           
And you lost a

          
ll sense of co

ntrol
           
And your thoug

             
hts have taken

      
 their toll
             
When your mind

              
 breaks the sp

            
irit of your s

oul
           
Your faith wal

Nothing's ever

[Bridge]
           
Did you try to

            
 live on your 

own
           
When you burne

             
d down the hou

Did you stand 

             
too close to t

Like a liar lo
