Dm
I'm not sure what I'm looking for anymore
C#                   Dm
I just know that I'm harder to console
Dm
I don't see who I'm trying to be instead of me
C#                Dm
But the key is a question of control

Can you say what you're trying to play anyway?
I just pay while you're breaking all the rules
All the signs that I find have been underlined
Devils thrive on the drive that is fueled

Chorus:
Dm                 F                            A#
All this running around, well, it's getting me down
                Gm
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
Dm                 F                           A#
I don't need to believe all the dreams you conceive
                   Gm
You just need to achieve something that rings true

There's a hole in your soul like an animal
With no conscience repentance unknown
Close your eyes, pay the price for your paradise
Devils feed on the seeds that are sown

I can't conceal what I feel, what I know is real
No mistaking the faking, I care
With a prayer in the air, I will leave it there
On a note full of hope not despair

Chorus:
All this running around, well, it's getting me down
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
I don't need to believe all the dreams you conceive
You just need to achieve something that rings true
All this running around, well, it's getting me down
Just give me a pain that I'm used to
I don't need to believe all the dreams you conceive
You just need to achieve something that rings true
