Verse: 2
Em chordEm
All we are is an isle of flightless birds
Am chordAm
We find our worth in giving birth and stuff
G chordG B chordB
We're lining our homes against winding roads
B chordB
And we think the going is tough
Em chordEm Am chordAm
We pick songs to sing remind us of things that nobody cares about
G chordG B chordB
And honestly we're probably more suicidal than ever now
Em chordEm Am chordAm
If you decide to live by what you think's wrong and what's right
G chordG
Believe me you'll begin to wish you were sleeping
B chordB
Your weeping will creep in your head and you'll cry
Em chordEm Am chordAm
But if we wake up every morning and decide what we believe
G chordG B chordB
We can take a part our very heart and the light will set us free

Chorus:
C chordC D chordD Em chordEm
I am cold can you hear
G chordG D chordD C chordC
I will fly with no hope no fear
C chordC D chordD Em chordEm
And the ground taunts my wings
G chordG D chordD
Plummet as I sing plummet as I

I am cold can you hear
G chordG D chordD C chordC
I will fly with no hope no fear
D chordD Em chordEm
And the ground taunts my wings
G chordG D chordD
Plummet as I sing plummet as I sing

Outro:
C chordC
How frustrating and so degrading
His time we're wasting
D chordD
As time will fly by and the sky will cry as light is fading
Em chordEm
And he is waiting oh so patiently
G chordG D chordD
While we repeat the same routine as we will please comfortability and
C chordC
Please don't think about why you can't sleep in the evening
D chordD
And please don't be afraid of what your soul is really thinking
Em chordEm
Your soul knows good and evil your soul knows both sides
G chordG D chordD
And it's time you pick your battle and I promise you this is mine
I promise you
