Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

Maybe no one told you there is strength in your tears

And so you fight to keep from pouring out

But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul

 Do you think there's enough that you would drown?

Chorus

 If no one will listen

 If you decide to speak

 If no one's left standing after the bombs explode

 If no one wants to look at you

 For what you really are

 I will be here still

Verse 2

same as verse 1)

No one can tell you where you alone must go

There's no telling what you will find there

And, God, I know the fear that eats away at your bones

It's screaming every step, "Just stay here"

Chorus

 then

Bridge

If you find your fists are raw and red from beating yourself down

If your legs have given out under the weight

If you find you've been settling for a world of gray

 So you wouldn't have to face down your own hate

end with chorus x2
