[Verse 1]
Bm G
I sense there’s trouble ahead.
A G
It’s clear by the signs and warnings
Bm G
that should tell where all blame is due.
D A
So why are they pointing at my head?
Bm G
All have been led astray.
A G
We’ve all fallen short in some way.
Bm G
Please understand I’m ashamed.
D A
and I beg of you, please find your grace.
[Chorus]
G D A
‘Cause I’m not in a right state of mind.
G D A
I just wish I had strength to admit it.
G D A
My stubbornness will put up a fight,
G D A
but I don’t deserve to win it.
Bm A
I’m left in the dark pondering my mistakes,
G F#7
but in the light I swear I will
F#7 Bm
deny it all.
[Verse 2]
Bm G
I sense deception to come.
A G
Honestly, truth and I are never one.
Bm G
‘Cause I am the lying man and
D A
I have made you my next victim.
Bm G
Oh I need you to see through my act,
A G
to tell me I’m wrong, to take off the mask,
Bm G
or else I’ll be left in the lie.
D A
I’ll deceive my way straight to demise.
[Chorus]
G D A
‘Cause I’m not in a right state of mind.
G D A
I just wish I had strength to admit it.
G D A
My stubbornness will put up a fight,
G D A
but I don’t deserve to win it.
Bm A
I’m left in the dark pondering my mistakes,
G F#7
but in the light I swear I will
F#7 Bm
deny it all.
[Bridge]
Bm
I am the host of the hostility.
A
I’m the master magician that makes you believe
G D A
I’m real, I’m not fake, but in reality I’m a lying man.
Bm
My life’s become this grand game of deception.
A
My mind’s ignored all my heart’s good intentions.
G A
We all feel this tension. We all have our own illusions.
[Chorus]
G D A
‘Cause we're not in a right state of mind.
G D A
We all wish for the strength to admit it.
G D A
Our stubbornness will put up a fight,
G D A
but we don’t deserve to win it.
G D A
No we're not in a right state of mind.
G D A
We all wish for the strength to admit it.
G D A
Our stubbornness will put up a fight,
G D A
but we don’t deserve to win it.
[Outro]
Bm A
We're left in the dark pondering our mistakes,
G F#7
but in the light I swear we will
F#7 Bm
deny it all.
