Em
Are we so alone,
So distant,
D
So forgotten,
Cadd9 D/F#
As we think ourselves to be?
Em
These are our lifes
D
But did they ever even matter?
Cadd9 D/F#
Are we worth remembering?
Em Cadd9 G
These machines feed on the tears of broken lifes and dying dreams
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em Cadd9
We’re throwing wrenches in the gears
G
Our lifes will not be lived in vain
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em
When this is all said and done
Cadd9
We spent this life on the run
G D/F#
Judged by the company we keep
Em
Our language, buried inside
Cadd9
These lungs that keep us alive
G D/F#
We breathe so selfishly
Em
Promises we plan to break
D
Are made in whispered voices
Cadd9 D/F#
Cause our despair knows many names
Em
We make mistakes
D Cadd9 D/F#
But we apologize with roses we never stop to smell on the way
Em Cadd9 G
These machines feed on the tears of broken lifes and dying dreams
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em Cadd9
We’re throwing wrenches in the gears
G
Our lifes will not be lived in vain
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em
When this is all said and done
Cadd9
We spent this life on the run
G D/F#
Judged by the company we keep
Em
Our language, buried inside
Cadd9
These lungs that keep us alive
G D/F#
We breathe so selfishly
Em G D/F# Em
We fell from the sky todaaay
Em G D/F# Em
We melt into balls of claay
Em G D/F# Em
We sell ourselves everyday
Em Cadd9 G D/F#
Don’t tell me how to live this way
Em Cadd9 G
Pushed so far to the edge We teeter just on the brink
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em Cadd9
You can lead me to the bloodbath
G
But you can’t make me drink
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em Cadd9 G
As These machines feed on the tears of broken lifes and dying dreams
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em Cadd9
We’re throwing wrenches in the gears
G
Our lifes will not be lived in vain
D
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, Ohhhhhhhhhh)
Em
my life will not be lived in vain
