[Verse 1]
Am G F
Landing on solid ground the time approaching where we all fall down
Am G
With each new wave another wake up call deep in our minds
F
Where did it all go wrong?
Am G
Steadfast we hold our breath wishing it all away
F
Waiting for a sign to bring us back some day
Am G F
We hold our breath and wish it all away and wait for the day
[Chorus]
C Am G
To watch it all just wash right away
C Am G
When will it all just make sense to me?
C
Is this the wake up call?
Am G
Something I can't ignore? Show me a sign of life Just give me something more
C Am G
I‘ll take a number like the others To take a number and get back into line
Am G F
Falling fast sure as the sun may rise We're discovering all the things we hide
Am G F
So much from ourselves It's got me wondering What's going on inside?
Am G
Have we been here before? There's something so familiar about This place
F
Can you tell me what for?
Am G F
Still we keep holding our breath
[Chorus]
C Am G
To watch it all just wash right away
C Am G
When will it all just make sense to me?
C
Is this the wake up call?
Am G
Something I can't ignore? Show me a sign of life Just give me something more
C Am G
I‘ll take a number like the others To take a number and get back into line
[Bridge]
Am G F
So could you please lend me your ears
Am G F
I've been far gone far far too long
Am G F
As we masquerade, what is this game And this constant charade?
Am G F
When did your heart cease to beat anyway?
