Bridge: A, B, C#m, Ebm
Chorus: E, B, A, B
Verse:
C#m B
Feel, don't watch the mercury drop
E A
Things fell apart and then I turned and stopped and said
C#m B E
I can't go on anymore like this
Verse x2
Save me from the tired hums
The crooked stares of the broken ones
One by one, let's watch them all disappear
I used to climb up to the attic at night
I'd end up in the basement screaming
I'm floating above all of you now

Chorus: x3
I never thought I'd see the day
They've got me by the throat

My paranoia spreads like cancer
I'm so far from all my problems now
C#m, B
E
So I packed what's left of me and I'm leaving

These city walls are closing in on me

Take me back before it all began
Before I'd run and before I cared
Sometimes my best just isn't enough
