Introduction:
Bm G7+ A B
Bm7
Blank pages keep me awake
Bm
But these nights are too long to shake off
G7+ G
My nerve too easy to break
A
A brave face is too hard to fake
Bm
Stressed out and I'm losing the will
I'm too hot but I'm feeling the chill of defeat
G7+ G
This happens every time
A
Push the boundaries 'til I tow the line
Bm
I'll find my feet
D
Save my skin and hopefully
G7+
Crush the doubt in my head
G A
To work this out in the end
Bm
I've been crossing out the lines
D
And I've been wasting all my time
G7+ G
Questioning myself again
A
With ink that's trapped inside this pen
Bm7 Bm
Ignore and push to the side
Plays on in the back of my mind
G7+ G
The right words are too hard to find
A
Keep cool and wait for a sign
Bm
No good, just good for nothing
B
This path must lead to something
G7+ G
Worth the doubt, the stress, the effort
A Bm
I always knew I could never cut the pressure
Bm
I'll find my feet
D
Save my skin and hopefully
A G
Crush the doubt in my head
A
To work this out in the end
Bm
I've been crossing out the lines
D
And I've been wasting all my time
G
Questioning myself again
A
With ink that's trapped inside this pen

Bm G
Thinking back to the days when nobody knew my name
Bm
It was so easy to escape
G
My careless mind was a safer place
BmA D G
Bm A
Always asking why can't bring myself to even try
G
Holding out till the end
A
Fake a smile and pretend
Bm Em Am
Oh, but there's still time to get these wounds to open wide
A D
Spill my guts on this page
G
Breaking out of this cage

Oh, but there's still time to get these wounds to open wide
