Verse 1
(G major) Noth (E minor) ing can be done
against the truth (A minor)
No matter how (D major) we remain (G major) in denial,
yeah
Wasting time,
repla (E minor) cing time with each empty excuse (A minor)
But that'll only (D major) work (G major) a little while
(A minor) Coping with (D major) despair,
(G major) knowing (E minor) you're not there (A minor)
Ashamed to (D major) just admit (G major) I've been a fool
(A minor) So I blame it (D major) on the son, (G major)
run away from every (E minor) one (A minor)
Hoping (D major) to escape (G major) this ridicule
(B minor) Trapped (E minor) in misery,
(B minor) wrapped (E minor) so miserably
(A minor) And this deception,
(D major) I wear (G major) it like a skin
(B minor) Dy (E minor) ing to maintain,
(B minor) oh I (E minor) keep trying to explain
(A minor) A heart that (D major) never loved (G major) me to begin
(A minor) Oh I'm such a (D major) mess,
(G major) I have no choice but to (E minor) confess
That (A minor) I've been desper (D major) ately
trying (G major) to belong (A minor)
Lieing to my (D major) self an (G major) d
everybody (E minor) else (A minor)
Refusing (D major) to admit (G major) my right was wrong,
and then he came (E minor)

Selah, oh (A minor) and it means
(E minor) Praise (B minor) and meditation,
and (G major) then he came (E minor)

(B minor) Praise and meditation,
and (G major) then he came (E minor)

Verse 3
How beautiful is fruit still (E minor)
in denial of its roots
(A minor) My guilty heart (D major) behaves (G major) so foolishly
This treason from within that
(E minor) reasons with my sin
(A minor) Won't be happy (D major) 'til
it sees (G major) the death of me
(A minor) Selfishly (D major) addicted (G major) to
a life that (E minor) I depicted
(A minor) Conflicted (D major) 'cause it's
(G major) not reality (A minor)
Oh what's left (D major) of me,
(G major) I beg you des (E minor) per ately (A minor)
Cause me to (D major) agree (G major) with what
I know is be (E minor) st for me
Please (A minor) save me from (D major) my self,
I need (G major) you, save me from (E minor) my self
(A minor) Please save me from (D major) myself
(G major) so I can heal (B minor)
The choices (E minor) that I've made,
(B minor) oh have (E minor) been nothing but mistakes
(A minor) What a wasted (D major) use of space, (G major)
should I die be (E minor) fore I wake?
(B minor) In (E minor) all of my religion,
(B minor) I've (E minor) fortified this prison
(A minor) Obligated (D major) to obey (G major) the demands
of bad (E minor) decision
Please (A minor) save me from (D major) myself
(G major) I need you to save me from (E minor) myself
Please (A minor) save me from (D major) myself (G major) so I can heal (D major)
(G major) And
