Verse 1:
[Fm] There's something buried
deep between these lines
that [G#]you will [Bb]never [Fm]see
It's something that they
don't want us to [G#]fi-[Bb]gure [Fm]out
Were suffocating under
all the lies and
[G#]picture [Bb]perfect s[Fm]miles
The presidents and
photographs in [G#]ma-[Bb]ga-[C#]zines

[Fm] Divided by a sense of [C#]doubt[Eb]

wants the [Fm]truth
But they're too
scared to face [Eb]it
[C#] They just don't
accept what's [Fm]happening[Eb]
[C#] We just sit back
and watch the [Fm]world
destroy itself
when[Eb] We [C#]all know
Eb Eb(hold)
something's wrong
Chorus 2:
[G#] We are the lives that will
de[Eb]cide the state of desperation
[Fm] Divided by a sense of [C#]doubt[Eb]
[G#] We'll fight for you
We'll break the [Eb]rules
We'll write this indignation
[Fm] Until it all comes crashing [C#]down[Eb]
