Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Key: E Difficulty: Intermediate Intro: C#m A x4 Verse 1: C#m Talk to you with my hands tied Walk towards you on a fine line A Everybody has a dark side
I feel embarrassed when they see mine C#m Rain falling from my dark skies Clouds parting, but it's all lies A Shouldn't I see the sunshine now? Wonder how I look in God's eyes C#m Am I a good person or a lost one? Will this feel worth it when I'm all done? A Will I feel ashamed or like who I was? Will the pain vanish or will more come? C#m Will I stay numb or regain love? Maybe someday have a taste of freedom? A Will I take the poison out of my blood? Or just leave it there inside of my lungs? C#m I know (Know know, know) I should let you go, hands are feeling cold A Just leave me alone (No, no, no) I just want control, I feel so exposed C#m Liars in my home (No, no, no) Please do not provoke, noose around my soul, I cut down a rope A They don't want me happy, they don't want me fixed They don't want me better, they just want me broke C#m Talk but never listen, at least I admit it Block out all my vision, watchin' me diminish A That's my favorite pastime, I know nothing different Tell me something different, I don't see the difference C#m I just feel offended, I just feel defensive Why don't you accept me? I just need acceptance A Time is of the essence, don't like how we spend it You just want perfection, I need you to let me Chorus: C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go Verse 2: C#m Why'd you say I don't belong here? (Huh?) Fill a bucket full of my tears (Huh?) A Pour it out the water, all of my insecurities whenever I'm scared C#m I watch 'em grow and say I don't care I pray to God to ask if hope's real A And if it is, then I was thinking maybe You could introduce us, we ain't met still C#m Yeah, my chest feels like a blade's in it Who put it there? I think they did it A Out the cell now, where am I headed? Am I Hell-bound? Will I find Heaven? C#m Will I feel better or just regret it? If I let you go and find the seven letters A I've been looking for, it's like it's never endin' Open all the doors and let the peace enter C#m I'm (So, so, so) Pitiful at times, miserable inside A They want me to hide (No, no, no) How can I survive? Change your state of mind C#m I should say goodbye (No, no, no) They want me to beg, they want me to plead, they want me to die A They just want me dead, they just want me hurt Don't want me to live, don't want me alive C#m Stop with the pretending, I don't feel respected I just feel rejected, I don't like rejection A You promise protection, I don't feel protected I just feel neglected, how can I respect it? C#m I'll teach them a lesson, I pick up the weapon Aim in your direction, shoot at my reflection A Shatter my perception, hate it when I'm desperate You just want perfection, I want you to let me Chorus: C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go C#m A Let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go (Let me go)
