[Intro]
C# F#
[Verse 1]
C#
Look in my eyes
F# C#
They are like the ocean blue and confused, I'm a mess
F#
Heard the wind was just a whisper of greatness to know and to be
C# F#
Look in my brain a storm without an ending
C#
Searching for help I give up, a whirlwind of madness,
F#
Yet a slight relief of gladness I sing
[Chorus 1]
D#m C# F#
(La, da, da, da, da, da)
C# A#m
Lost between this love and despair
F#
Help me find the medium

I'd rather feel lost between this love and despair
F#
Help me find the medium
