same
Fm                C#              D#    C#
So I'm told as a voice repeats "Again, again and
 Fm
again"
Fm                                              C#
What if it doesn't feel like everyone said it should

How'd I fall so far, now no one can find me

Realize in a moment my ambition is a curse

Can someone remind me

I can't seem to wake up from this dream

I can't catch my breath enough to scream
Dm                   C#
Be careful what you wish for
             G#        A#m     D#        F  Fm
'Cause your wishes may not be what they seem

Fm
How'd I fall so far

Can someone rewind me,

To who that I used to be?
C#  D#        C#
To who that I used to be
Fm                                     A#m
(What if it doesn't feel like everyone said
it should)
C#          D# C#
What have I become?
