 Fm          F#
Careful when you're swimming in the holy water
 A#m        G#
Drowning in your own beliefs
 Fm          F#
Careful when you're standing at a broken altar
 A#m      G#
Asking if we feel relief
 Fm          F#
Careful when you're looking for a true confession
 A#m        G#
Mirror what you wanna see
 Fm          F#
Careful when you're telling us about obsessions
 A#m        G#
Sayin' that we're never free

            Fm      F#
You better hold on, hold on, hold on
            A#m    G#
You better hold on to what you love
            Fm      F#
You better give up, give up, give up
            A#m    G#
You better give up on givin' up

Chorus:
                   Fm  F#
Is it deliver-iver-iverance
                          A#m  G#
If you can never, never change?
                   Fm  F#
Is it deliver-iver-iverance
                    A#m    G#
If you hurt me in exchange?

Trust me when I tell you 'bout my own convictions
Made my mind up long ago
Trust me when I tell you it's a contradiction
Wishing that I didn't know
Trust me that I struggle with all your destruction
Screaming that I told you so
Trust me when I talk about the disillusion
Building up and letting go

You better hold on, hold on, hold on
You better hold on to what you love
You better give up, give up, give up
You better give up on giving up

Chorus

 Fm        F#
Look in my eyes when you say it, say it
 A#m       G#
Look in my eyes like you mean it, mean it
 Fm        F#
Look in my eyes when you say it, say it
 A#m       G#
Look in my eyes like you mean it

Chorus

Is it deliver-iver-iverance
(Look in my eyes when you say it, say it)
If you can never, never change
(Look in my eyes like you mean it, mean it)
Is it deliver-iver-iverance
(Look in my eyes when you say it, say it)
If you hurt me in exchange
(Look in my eyes like you mean it, mean it, mean it)

Like you mean it
Like you mean it
Like you mean it
