Am F Am F || Am..
Intro.. Into verse..
F Am F Am
Let it out, let it out.. Fill the empty space
F C G Am
So insecure. Find the words and let it out
F Am F Am
Staring down, staring down.. Nothing comes to mind
F C G F
Find the place. Turn the water into wine
Am F
But I feel I'm getting nowhere
Em G
And I'll never see the end
C G Am F
So I wither.. And render myself helpless
C G Am F
I give in.. And everything is clear
C G F Am
I breakdown.. And let the story guide me
F Am F Am
Turn it on, turn it on.. Let the feelings flow
F C G Am
Close your eyes. See the ones you used to know
F Am F Am
Open up, open up.. Don't struggle to relate
F C G F
Lure it out.. Help the memory escape

The world's what you create

And all my best creations burn into the ground
