   Am			C		G		   Em1. 
Life it seems will fade away,	drifting further every day.
2. Things not what they used to be,	missing one inside of me.   
Am			C		G		   Em
                                                                        
1. Getting lost within myself,		nothing matters, no one else.  
2. Deathly lost, this can't be real,	cannot stand this hell I feel.
W/Rhy. Fig 2 (1st 7 bars only)

   Am			C		G		   Em
1. I have lost the will to live,	simply nothing more to give.
2. Emptiness is filling me,		to the point of agony.
   Am			C		G
1. There is nothing more for me.	Need the end to set__
2. Growing darkness taking dawn,	I was me, but now__  w/Fill 3
