Verse 1
Em 
 (E minor) I woke up to the same old ceiling
Pain cracked like my patience thin
C 
Cof (C major) fee cold, the clock keeps screaming
Is this it? Is this it again?
Em 
 (E minor) I've been biting my
tongue till it bleeds
Playing quiet, playing small for their needs
C 
But there's a  (C major) spark in my chest
Am 
Em 
Yes,  (A minor) burning through my veins  (E minor) 
Crash the quiet, break the glass
G 
I was nev (G major) er built to fade to black
C 
Turn it up  (C major) until it shakes my past
Am 
I'm alive  (A minor) when the walls all crack
Em 
Crash the quiet,  (E minor) hear my name
G 
I'm done  (G major) hiding in the shade of shame
C 
If it scares  (C major) me, I'll still stay
Am 
I'm alive  (A minor) when I don't
Em 
C 
Am 
look the way  (E minor)  (C major)  (A minor) 
Em 
All  (E minor) fears like a worn out jacket
Heavy on my crooked spine
C 
 (C major) I've been begging ghosts for answers
Am 
But they  (A minor) only steal my time
Em 
I'm done waiting  (E minor) for someone to save
Every breath is a brick I can lay
C 
I'll build a  (C major) road out of doubt
Am 
And I'm  (A minor) taking it right now
Em 
Right now  (E minor) 
Crash the quiet, break the glass
G 
I was nev (G major) er built for fade to black
C 
Turn it up  (C major) until it shakes my past
Am 
I'm alive  (A minor) when the walls all crack
Em 
Crash the kayak  (E minor) with my name
G 
I'm done  (G major) hiding in the shade of shame
C 
If it scares  (C major) me, I'll still stay
Am 
I'm alive  (A minor) when I don't
Dm 
Am 
Em 
look away  (D minor)  (A minor)  (E minor) 
I've been small for too long
Shrinking just to get along
C 
But my heart  (C major) beats hitting hard
Am 
Like a thou (A minor) sand marching yards
Em 
Will you wait?  (E minor) 
Will you stay?
When I shout?
When I change?
Either way I'm on my way
Am 
Em 
Either way I'm on my way  (A minor)  (E minor) 
Crash the quiet
Break the glass
G 
All was nev (G major) er built to fade to black
C 
Turn it up  (C major) until it shakes my past
Am 
I'm alive  (A minor) when the walls all crack
Em 
Clash the quiet,  (E minor) scream my name
G 
Every scar  (G major) is gasoline and flame
C 
If it scares  (C major) me, I'll still stay
Am 
I'm alive  (A minor) when I don't look away
Em 
C 
Am 
Em 
C 
Am 
Why?  (E minor)  (C major)  (A minor)  (E minor)  (C major)  (A minor) 
You
Em 
 (E minor)
