A                        C#m
Thoughts, of you and your friends
               D
They keep me together
                 E
You're one step ahead
                 A                                               VERSE 1
Don't leave me behind
                   C#m
You, have you no shame
                D
I don't want forever
                 E
Just keep it the same

C                      D
'Cause when I have the spotlight

                C                        D                E?   E
And forget that sooner or later all your promises turn to lies


              Bm                     G
This can't be me, screaming from the stage
                 D                     A
Trying to be the one, calling out your name.                     CHORUS
                  Bm                          G
I looked into the crystal, I never wished for fame
                  D                             A
I only want to be great, I know they're not the same.

C
All these people I can't stand to miss
         D
All this shit just overwhelms me I can't handle it
        G    G/F#   Em
I wanna die---
          C

You wanna cry------

verse2 lyrics:

Stop, help me to my feet
Can't you see that I'm severed
Lead me to my bed
Unfold the blankets
As I drift off to sleep
Will me to heaven
As I will to you
And I hope you know that
