man)
[Dm]Caught [Ab]here in a [G]fiery [F]blaze,
[Dm]won't lose[Ab] my will[G] to st[F]ay
[Dm]I tried [Ab]to drive on th[Dm]rough the night
The heat stroke ridden [Ab]weather,
the bar[Dm]ren empty sights
No [Ab]oasis [G]here to [Db]see,
[Dm]the sand is [E]singing [F]deathless [E]words to me

[Verse 3]
[Dm]Can't you help me as I'm
[G]startin' [F]to [C]burn (all alone)
Too many doses and I'm
[F]starting to get [C]an at[Dm]traction
My confidence is leaving [G]me
on my [F]own [C](all alone)
No one can save me and [F]you know
I don't [C]want the attention
[Dm]As I

[Verse 4]
[Ab]adju[Dm]st to my new sights
The rarely tired [Ab]lights [Dm]will
take me to new heights
My hand is on the [Ab]trigger [Dm]and
I'm ready to ignite
Tomorrow might not make [Ab]it,
[Dm]but everything's all right
Mental [Ab]fiction [G]follows me,
[Db]show[Dm] me what[Em] it's [E]like[F] to be s[E]et free[Dm]

[Verse 5]
Can't you help me as [G]I'm
startin' [F]to [C]burn (all alone)
Too many doses and I'm
[F]starting [C]to get an at[Dm]traction
My confidence is leaving [G]me
on [F]my [C]own (all alone)
No one can save me and [F]you know
I don't want [C]the at[Dm]tention

[Verse 6]
So [Dm]sorry [G]you're not her[C]e[E]
I've been [Am]sane too long my
vision's [G]so un[F]clear[Dm]
Now [G]take a trip with [C]me
[E]But don't [Am]be surprised when things
[C]aren't what [G]they seem
[F]

[Verse 7]
[Dm]Caught here [Ab]in a[G] fiery b[F]laze,
[Dm]won't [Ab]lose my [G]will [F]to stay
[Dm]These eyes[Ab] won't see t[G]he same,[F] after[Dm] I fli[Ab]p toda[G]y

[Verse 8]
Sometimes [Dm]I don't know why[Ab]
[Dm]we'd rather live than die
We look up towards [Ab]the sky
[Dm]for answers to our lives
We may get some solu[Ab]tions
[Dm]but most just pass us by
Don't want your absolu[Ab]tion
'cause I [Dm]can't make it right
[E]I'll

[Dm]Can't you help me as I'm
[G]startin' [F]to [C]burn (all alone)
Too many doses and I'm
[F]starting to get [C]an attrac[Dm]tion
My confidence is leaving [G]me on
[F]my [C]own (all alone)
No one can save me and [F]you know
I don't want [C]the at[Dm]tention

[Verse 11]
So [G]sorry you're not [C]here[E]
I've been [Am]sane too long
my vis[G]ion's so unclear
[F]Now[Dm] take a t[G]rip with me[C]
[E]But don't [Am]be surprised when
things aren't [F]what they seem
[Dm]I've [G]known it from [C]the start [E]all
These [Am]good ideas will [G]tear
your brains [F]apart[C]
[Dm]Scared but [G]you can follow [F]me[C][E]
I'm too [Am]weird to live but [G]much too rare to [F]die
