Verse 1:
E B E A
I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again
E B A
In endless cycle of joy and pain
E B A
Inside one day your whole life can change, innocence torn away
E B A
Trust gives gives way to a thicker skin
Verse 2:
E B E A
A shield from the pain? Or a trap that keeps it all in?
E B A
They tries to break me down I had to break away
E B A
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day...
Chorus:
E B A A/G#,A,A/G# E,B,A,A/G#,A,A/G#
Whoo-ooo-ooooh

Verse 3:
E B E A
I see lives crash like waves on the shore again and again
E B A
In an endless cycle of joy and pain
E B A
NO POETRY, NO SYMMETRY, nothing left inside of me
E B A
What happened to that feeling of invincability
Verse 4:
E B
Broken up- Caught under the load
E A
Broken down- By the side of the road
E B A
They tried to break me down I had to break away
E B A
I woke up from that nightmare to start another day...
