Do you know what's worth fighting for,

Give up the fight

Throw up your arms into the sky,
You and I Bb F C

When you're at the end of the road

And you lost all sense of control

And your thoughts have taken their toll

When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul

Nothing's ever built to last

You're in ruins.

Dm Bb F C
Did you try to live on your own

When you burned down the house and home?

Did you stand too close to the fire?

Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone
