Biography:
Skillet is an American rock band formed in Memphis, Tennessee, consisting of all Christian members.
Skillet formed in 1996 with two members: John Cooper, former vocalist for Tennessee progressive rock band Seraph, and Ken Steorts, former guitarist for Urgent Cry. The two bands met through touring together, but those bands disbanded soon after, so John and Ken's pastor encouraged them to form their own band as a side-project. Coming from different styles of rock music, they decided to name the experiment Skillet.

Em
Just one spark
Am Em
Is all it takes
Em
I tried so hard
Am Em
But it all goes up in flames
[Pre-chorus]
Em
This is not the way that I thought
G
I would turn out to be
Em
Tried to give but all that I got
G
Was more insanity
Em
Broken everything that I've touched
G
It's gone against me
Em Am Em
I can't get away
[Chorus]
Em
From the fire
G
That burns inside, consuming
D
I fight to stay alive
Am Em
But I can't breathe
G
The voices scream
The enemy
D
Takes over everything
Am
This is the madness in me
