Standard tuning
CAPO 1 (key Eb minor)
i am not sure i want this to take
what it s taking
but that just seems to be the choice
i am making
mother this is all i ever wanted
now how do i get back to where there isn t everything, only you
CHORUS:
i cannot hear
because i hear everything
i cannot see
because i see everything
i cannot feel
because i feel everything
(second verse, same as first)
it is not peace i find, it is not satisfaction
it s not the life i always dreamed or imagined
it is not wisdom, it is not strength
it is not control
it is a promise meant to quell my every fear yet leave me cursed
CHORUS
Bridge: x2
(third verse, same as first)
i ve nothing left
no life or death
no will that s free
i have no way now to explain
what s come over me
i m just a body overwhelmed
and lying still
a casualty of knowing what i want and wanting what i know
CHORUS
