Bm
Well I don't show feelings
I don't tend to wear them well
G
But I own scars that show
and they've got a story to tell

I bite my lip and walk away
And I know what I should say
There's so much on my mind
But you don't want to hear it

Chorus:
   Bm                             G  Em
If you could see me on the other side
Bm                                 G
You might find me fighting for my life
                Em
But I'm still alive

This little high we're on
It ain't for the weak at heart
We've got a role to play
And I'm gonna play my part
I felt the stone that burns
I've held it in my hands
I threw it all away
Cause I never could kill it

Chorus - x2
