I'm getting esperate

In these dangerous days
A                   Dm
Come a little bit closer

And even though your love is cruel
    Dm                          Am

You're the only thing worth fighting for
 A#                          A7
You're the only thing worth dying for

Don't wanna be dead to life
Don't wanna be dulled to extinction
Don't wanna be lost in dreams
Don't wanna be caught sleepwalking
Maybe I should break the chain
Maybe I should break the connection
Such strange little birds
Devoured by our obsessions

Can you love me for what I've become
Love me for what I
Said that I would not become
Can you love me for what I've become
Love me for what I
Said that I would not become
Cause they don't burn like I do
They don't burn like I do

Chorus:
And even though your love is cruel
And even though our stars are crossed
We're still waiting for tomorrow
We're still aching for tomorrow
And even though our love is doomed
And even though we're all messed up
You're the only thing worth fighting for
You're the only thing worth dying for

    A#                      Dm    A# Dm
And even though our love is doomed
Even though our love is doomed
Even though our love is doomed
Even though our love is doomed
Even though our love is doomed
Even though our love is doomed
Even though our love is doomed
You're the only thing worth fighting for
You're the only thing worth dying for
