Verse 1:
B      F#/Bb
  I am outside
Ebm             F#              B
  And I've been waiting for the sun
        F#/Bb
With my wide eyes
Ebm         F#                  B
  I've seen worlds that don't belong
        F#/Bb  Ebm           F#          B
My mouth is dry with words I cannot verbalize
       F#/Bb Ebm            F#
Tell me why    we live like this


Refrain:
B         F#/Bb  C#
  Keep me safe inside Your arms like towers
B        F#/Bb  C#
  Tower over    me yeah


Chorus:
Ebm            F#
  Cause we are broken
C#
  What must we do to restore
Ebm  F#
  Our innocence
C#
  And all the promise we adored 
B         G#m       B              G#m      F#     
  Give us life again cause we just wanna be whole


Verse 2:
B          F#/Bb
  Lock the doors
Ebm               F#           B
  Cause I like to capture this voice
            F#/Bb 
You came to me tonight
Ebm       F#              B
  So everyone will have a choice
          F#/Bb
And under red lights
Ebm           F#             B
  I'll show myself it wasn't forged 
        F#/Bb
We're at war
Ebm           F# 
  We live like this


(Repeat Refrain and Chorus)
