Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A5]Ask me how it feels
To feel like you're a failure
When everything that's real
Burns the flame in anger
I've heard it all before
I've felt some pain and more
More than you could ever dream
More than it probably seems
I've sat with head in hand
[Eb5]Stressed by my de[Dm]mands
[G]Stomach[A5] tied in knots
[Eb5]Alone I've sat and [C5]rot
[G]'Cause [A5]the pain from all these fears
Has [Eb5]built up all these [Dm]years
I'll [A5]wipe away the tears
[Eb5]Wipe a[C5]way[A5][Bb5][Bb][A5][C5][Bb]
[Bb5]the te[G5]ars[A5][Bb][Bb5][C5][Bb][G5]

[Verse 2]
[A5]Don't [Bb5]give i[Bb]n[A5][Bb][G5][A5][Bb]
[A5]Don't give[C5] up[Bb][Bb5][G5]

[Verse 3]
[A5]Walk the streets dejected
[Am]Alone and left[A5] rejected
Time does not care
And sometimes life ain't fair
Smashing bottles on the ground
My head begins to pound
I have lived amongst the garbage
With those who rape and carnage
Had many a promise broken
And [Eb5]broken some my[Dm]self
[G5]The prom[A5]ise I have kept alive
Is [Eb5]keep my inner w[C5]ealth
With my [A5]heart aimed at the world
Destiny [Eb5]I watch unfurl[Dm]
[G]I'll wip[A5]e away the tears
[Eb5]Wipe a[Cm]way the tears
[Bb]Don't

[Verse 5]
[A5]Opportunities[F]
[A5]Wasting life [Am]away[F]
[A5]Choked upon [Am]it s[A5] dust[F][Am]
[A5]Puked out in [Am]dis g[Dm]ust[Am][Bb]
[Bb5][G][A5][Am][A5][Am]

[Verse 6]
Let me tell you [A5]how it feels
To feel like you're a failure
Been climbing out this gutter
For what seems like it's forever
But one thing I must make clear
The struggle of these years
Has made every scar the stronger
My lust for life the longer
I will fight for what I love
And I will [Eb5]fight for those [Dm]I care
[G5]I wi[A5]ll fight at anytime
And I will [Eb5]fight any[C5]where
[G]With my [A5]heart aimed at this world
Destiny [Eb5]I watch unfurl[Dm][G5]
I'll [Bb5]wipe away the t[Bb]ears[Eb5]
[Bb]Wipe away [G5]the tears[G]

[Verse 7]
[A5]Don't[Bb5][A5][C5][A5][Bb5][G5]
