Happiness is just a word to me,

And it might have meant a thing or two
G
if I had known the difference.
G A7
Emptiness, a lonely parody,
C F
And my life, another smokin™ gun
G A7
A sign of my indifference.
Always keepin™ safe inside

Where no one ever had a chance

To penetrate a break in.
Let me tell you some have tried,

but I slam the door so tight
G
That they could never get in.
Verse 2 :
G A7
Kept my cool under lock and key
C
And I never shed a tear

G A7
Fear of love or bitter vanity
C
That kept on the run
F G A7
The main of events at my confession.
I kept a chain upon my door
C F
That would shake the shame of Cain
G A7
into a blind submission.
The burning ghost without a name
C F
Was still calling all the same
G
But I just wouldn™t listen.
Chorus 1 :
G
The longer I'd stall
The further I'd crawl
A
The further I'd crawl
The harder I'd fall
C F G
I was crawlin' into the fire
G
The more that I saw
The further I'd fall
A
The further I'd fall
The lower I'd crawl
C F G
I kept fallin' into the fire
Bridge :

Suddenly it occurred to me
D G
The reason for the run and hide
A
Had totaled my existance
B
Everything left on the other side
D G
Could never be much worse that this
A
But could I go the distance
B7
I faced the door and all my shame
D G
Tearin' off each piece of chain
A
Until they were broken
B7
But no matter how I tried
D G
The other side was locked so tight
A
The door it wouldn't open
Chorus 2 :
Gave it all that I got
And started to knock
B
Shouted for someone
To open the lock
D G A
I just gotta get through the door
And the more that I knocked
The hotter I got
B
The hotter I got
The harder I'd knock

I just gotta break through the door
