Fm                              Cm
Trying to make it through the darkness
                    C#
In a world that's heartless
                      A#m
This place is taking all of me
Fm                           Cm
I need to learn to flip the pages
                      C#
Running through these mazes
                     A#m
The road is getting hard to see

      Fm                  Cm    C#                    A#
Is it too much to ask for, to know what I'm fighting for?
Fm                     Cm
Tired living like I'm faceless
                 C#
I was made for greatness
                       A#
Now it's time that I believe

Chorus:
        F    G#  C#                          F
'Cause all they want is to, want is to breakout
 G#   C#                   Fm Cm
They want is to, want is to
 C#          A#m     Fm Cm
Want is to, want is to
 C#          A#m
Want is to, want is to

Counting up the days I'm wasting
Trying to find my place in
The madness here that we call life
I need to find a way to silence
All I hear is violence
A battlefield inside my mind

Is it too much to ask for, to know what I'm fighting for?
Tired living like I'm faceless
I was made for greatness
Now it's time that I believe

Chorus

Fm                  C#    A#
I've been dying to know how
Fm                       C#     A#
My voice sounds when I scream out
        A#
So I scream out

Chorus
