D
The sirens
Yeah,  the sirens on the streets run inside of me
The silence
It sounds like a clock counting
down and it's deafening

My heart's like a war zone, landmines everywhere
Careful where you step, you could hurt someone
Real good liars puttin' fires out using
my love like a bullet in a loaded gun

Chorus:
     A   Bm     G  D
I'm here, I'm alive
            A          Bm     G      D
'Cause I believe in a new Sunday sunrise
        A  Bm       G
If you look, every time
        Am
In the dark it shines
         Em                     D
You can still find love in the madness
Love in the madness

Magic
Can't tell if it's magic or a broken reality
Is it only a habit
All I can break or is it something that's
breaking me?
Am I the only one that feels like
the only one no one even sees in a crowded room?
Can you hear me now screaming out?
Is the storm breaking out?
Can you see the blue?

Chorus:
'Cause I'm here, I'm alive
I believe in a new Sunday sunrise
If you look, every time
In the dark it shines
You can still find love in the madness
Love in the madness

         D                     Em
If I've got one prayer if I've got one choice
        D/F#                    G
Let 'em see my light, let 'em hear my voice
         A                       G
If I've got one prayer, if I've got one choice
        D/F#                   Em
Let 'em see my light, let 'em hear my voice

Chorus:
I'm here and I'm alive
'Cause I believe in a new Sunday sunrise
If you look, every time
In the dark it shines
You can still find
I'm here, I'm alive
'Cause I believe in a new Sunday sunrise
If you look, every time
In the dark it shines
You can still find love in the madness
Love in the madness
Love in the madness
Love in the madness

If I've got one prayer, if I've got one choice
Let 'em see my light, let 'em hear my voice
If I've got one prayer, if I've got one choice
Let 'em see my light, let 'em hear my voice
