Whenever I step outside,

somebody claims to see    the light

lost our patience

Be more than one road to our final destination

For all the holes in an swers
D D 
 
that are clearly showing
Em Em 
 
For something to fill the space,

was all of the time I spent  a waste
'Cause so many choices point
C C 
 
D D 
 
the same way I  was going

what you want me to believe?
