Lightning

 
    Em 
Too close to the rain 
                 D 
Too close to the edge 
              C 
Feel like I'm losing my balance 
                      A 
But I haven't tripped yet 
       Em 
Losing track of the days 
                 G        D 
But every second drags on 
        C 
Thunder rolling in waves 
                        A 
It's all about to break 
 

 
                Em 
I thought I was up in the clouds 
                     D 
But it's really just smoke 
      C 
Got a million questions 
                    A 
They're stuck in my throat 
         Em 
So don't ask me to speak 
         G          D 
'Cause I might just choke 
  C 
I wanna get out 

But don't know where to go 
 

 
Em                D 
And it feels like lightning 
C                  A 
About to strike me 
Em            D              C A 
Walls covered up in writing 
Em                D 
Run away from the past 

Left behind me 
C 
Seems like you're scared 
              A 
Bitch I might be 
Em            D 
Burnt out and tired of fighting 
C                       A 
It feels like lightning 
 

 
       Em 
Too far from the edge 
                 D 
Too far from the jump 
               C 
Feels like I'm running in circles 
                    A 
But I haven't moved much 
       Em 
At the top of my lungs 
                 G       D 
But my words are drowned out 
        C 
Lost my voice in the gray 
                   A 
I let it slip away 
 

 
                Em 
I thought I was up in the clouds 
                     D 
But it's really just smoke

Em D C A 
Em D C N.C. 

Em D Am C 
Em D Am C 

                     Em 
Feels like I'm dying awake 

Blood pumping venom straight 
D       C 
Into my veins 

I'll take the writing on the walls 
      Em 
To my grave 

Take a breath back again 
       D         C 
What a mess I've made 

I'm a threat to myself 
            D 
And I can't escape 
 

 
Em                D 
And it feels like lightning

Walls covered up in writing
