Verse 1:
[A] All alone In the darkness of my room
The sunlight [B]bleeding through my blinds
Like an [C#m]angel's open wound
On the [A]outside (I seem fine)
But on the [B]inside (I'm not alright)
Every de[B]cision that I make
Just seems to [C#m]be my worst mistake
Chorus:
A[E]way, a[G#m]way from every[F#m]thing that hurts
A[E]way from [G#m]this pain I feel in[F#m]side
S[E]truggling to bend these lips
In[G#m]to a smile I'll [A]soon dismiss
My [E]heart is not a place that I call[G#m] home
I just [F#m]want to be a[A]lone
(Repeat Intro but only once)
Verse 2:
[A] Still alone In the darkness of my room
Staring [B]out between my blinds
Watching the [C#m]daylight be consumed
Like the [A]joy that (I once felt)
Dealing [B]with these (cards I'm dealt)
When they [B]said that life's not fair
They must have [C#m]seen me sitting here
Bridge 1:
[A] It's funny how one [B]moment
can change [C#m]everything
[A] And in a second [C#m]shatter
every [B]hope and dream you [A]have
And leave you with an [B]empty
feeling [C#m]you can't seem to [A]fill
And empty space that [B]only time might [G#/C]heal
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge 2:
[E] Breath in [F#m]deep and fill this c[C#m]hest with
something [A]more, more than empti[E]ness
Breath in [G#m]deep and fill this [C#m]chest with
something [A]more, more than empti[A]ness
(Repeat Chorus 1 except last line)
Chorus 2:
A[E]way, a[G#m]way from everything that hurts
A[C#m]way from this [A]pain I feel inside
A[E]way, a[G#m]way from everything that hurts
A[C#m]way I just [A]want to be alone
Outro: A--E(hold)
