1. Maybe no one told you there is strength in your tears
   F            G                    C
   And so you fight to keep from pouring out
   F               Emi                  Ami        G      F
   But what if you unlock the gate that keeps your secret soul
          D                                   G
   Do you think there's enough that you would drown?

R: If no one will listen
      G             C
   If you decide to speak
                   Ami       G               F
   If no one's left standing after the bombs explode
                      C
   If no one wants to look at you
       Emi             AmiG  D
   For what you really are
                 F
   I will be here still

2. 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"

F  G  C  Ami  G  F

3. 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
