Warm yourself by the fire son
C#5 G#5
And the morning will come soon
I'll tell you stories of a better time

Before we packed our bags and we left all this
C#5 G#5
behind us in the dust
We had a place that we could call home

C#5
I don't need your help now
B5
You won't let me down, down, down
Don't hold me up now
Eb5 B5
We are the angry and the desperate
C#5 G#5
The hungry and the cold
We are the one's who kept crying
Eb5 B5
But we've sweaty when you slept so cold
C#5 G#5
In the safety of your home
We've been pulling out the nails that holds up
Eb5
Don't hold me up now
B5

B5
You won't let me down, down, down
Don't hold me up now

Broken windows and ashes guiding the way

The lives that we've lost, the lives we've reclaimed
