[F#m] [C#m] [D]
[F#m] [C#m] [D]
[F#] I [C#m] was [D] born in a thunderstorm
I [C#m] grew up [D] overnight
[F#] I [C#] played [D] alone, I played on my own I [F#m] [Bm] survived
[F#m]
Hey, I [C#m] wanted everything [D] I never had
[F#m] Like [C#m] the [D] love that comes with [F#m] life
I [C#m] wore [D] envy and I hated death
But [C#] I survived
[F#m] I don't want it to [C#m] go to a place where [D] all the demons go
[F#m] Where the winds don't [C#m] change and nothing on the [D] ground can ever grow
[F#m] No, just [C#m] lies and it's hard to cry [D] in your window
But [C#] I survived
[F#m] I'm still breathing
[D] I'm still [F#m] breathing
I'm still breathing
I'm still [Bm] breathing

[F#m] [E] [A] [D]
[F#m] I found solace [D] in a stranger's place
[F#m] Way in the back of my [D] mind
[F#m] I [C#m] saw my [D] life in a stranger's face
[C#] And it was mine
[F#m] I don't want it [C#m] to go to a place where [D] all the demons go
[F#m] Where the winds don't [C#m] change and nothing on the [D] ground can ever grow
[F#m] No, just [C#m] lies and it's hard to [D] cry in your pillow
[C#] But I survived
[F#] I'm [C#]
[F#m] [D] still [F#m] breathing

[F#m] Took it [E] out, but I'm still [A] [D]
[F#m] [E] [A] [D]
[A] [E] [F#m] [D]
[F#m] breathing
[E] [A] I [D]
[Bm] made every single [F#m] mistake that you could [E] ever possibly [Bm] make
I took and I took and I took what you [F#m] gave
But you never [E] noticed that I was [Bm] in pain
I knew what I wanted, I went [F#m] and I did all the [E] things that you said that I [Bm] didn't
I told you that I would [F#m] not [E] inspire you
