[F] [Ebm]
[B]
[Db] [Ab] I'll [Ebm] tell you [B] stories of a better time, in a [Gb] place that we [Eb] once knew.
Before we packed [B] our bags and left all this [Db] behind us in all of [Eb] dust,
[Ebm] we had a place that we [B] could call home, [Gb] in a life no one could [Eb] touch.
Don't hold me up!
Well, I can stand [Gb] my own ground, I [Db] don't need your help, no, you won't let me [B] down, down, down.
So, [Eb] now, I can stand [Gb] my own ground, [Db] I don't need your help, no, you won't [B] let me down, down.
[Ebm]
We are the angry [B] and the desperate, the [Db] hungry and the cold.
[Ebm] We are the ones who kept quiet, and always did [Eb] what we were [Eb] told.
We've been sweaty [B] while you slept, so [Eb] calm in the safety of your home.
We've been pulling out the [B] nails that hold [Gb] up everything [Eb] you've known.
Don't hold me up!
Well, I can stand my own ground, I don't need [Db] your help, no, you won't let [B] me down, down, down.
[Eb] Well, I can stand [Gb] my own ground, I don't need your help, no, you won't let [B] me down, down, down.
[Eb] So, open [Gb] your eyes now, it's the other [Eb] way.
Broken windows and ashes are guiding [Abm] the way.
Keep quiet, [Gb] no longer we'll see through the [B] day.
Of the life that [Bb] we've lost, and the life that [B] we've claimed.
[Eb] Now, [Gb] [Bb]
[B] [Ebm]
[Ab]
[B]
[Ebm]
[Eb] [Eb] don't hold me up!
Well, I can stand [Gb] my own ground, I don't need [Db] your help, no, you won't let [B] me down, down, down.
Don't hold [Eb] me up!
Well, I can stand [Gb] my own ground, I don't need [Db] your help, no, you won't let [B] me down, down, down.
[Eb]
Don't hold me [Gb] up!
[Db]
Well, I can stand my own ground, I don't need [B] your help, no, you won't [Eb]
[Gb] [Db] let me down, [B] down, down.
[Ebm]
[Eb]
[Eb]
Deep inside these burning buildings, [F] voices dying to be [Ebm] heard.
Yet, we spend teaching a lesson we ourselves have never learned.
Let's break [Gb] this board from heartbreak, [Ab] let mountains not [Eb] conglue.
Let walls speak, I pray that they would tell me [B] what to do.
You see me, please [Db] just walk on by, walk on by.
[Bb] Forget my name and I'll forget [B] it too.
Build a sense of [Db] living, simple life, simple life.
I'm a TV, [Eb] go on, lean back, tell you.
No sign of life, you save the embers.
You're a traditional flame, we know the way [Bbm] but can't remember.
Just asking to the [Eb] grave, confessions [Gb] from the grave.
This place where no [Ebm] one can end.
All my fear, my [Gb]
insecurity, [Db] my fault, I need [B] light to heal.
You see me, please [Db] just walk on by, walk on by.
[Bb] Forget my name and [F] I'll forget it [B] too.
Build a sense of living, [Db] simple life, simple life.
[Bb] I'm a TV, go on, [Db] lean back, [B] tell you.
[Eb] The drones all slain [Gb] away, they're walking [Ab] all the time.
They starve and face the [Eb] screen, they never question why.
Disciples of a [Gb] god, the navel is our bridge.
[Ab] But we have bills to [Eb] pay, yet we have mouths to feed.
[Ab] [Gb]

[B] [Eb]
[Eb] [Bb]
