[Em] [G]
[Em] I awoke only [G] to find my lungs empty
And [Em] through the night, so it [G] seems I'm not breathing
[E] And now my [Em] dreams are nothing like they were [G] meant to be
And [Em] I'm breaking down, I think [G] I'm breaking down
And [Em] I'm afraid to sleep [G] because of what haunts me
[Em] Such as living [G] with the uncertainty
[Em] That I'll never find the words to [G] say
Which would completely [Em] explain
Just how [G] I'm breaking down
[D]
Someone [Em] come and, someone [C] come and save my life
Maybe [D] I'll sleep when [Em] I'm dead
But [C] now it's like the night is taking its toll
[D] With all the [Em] worries that occupy [C] the back of my mind
[D] Could it be [Em] this misery [C] will suffice?
[Em] [G]

[Em] I've become a simple [G] souvenir of someone's kill
I'd [Em] like to see, I'm constantly [G] changing from comb to pill
[Em] Madness fills my heart and [G] soul
As if the great divide could swallow [Em] me whole
Oh, how I'm [G] breaking down
[D]
Someone [Em] come and, someone [C] come and save my life
Maybe [D] I'll sleep when [Em] I'm dead
But now [C] it's like the night is taking its toll
