(RIFF1)
This empty room it fills my mind 
(RIFF1)
Freedom is lease make it fine 
(RIFF1)
Every single rope has break
(RIFF1) 
But in this life you can't turn back 
(RIFF2)               
I don't want to live, 
(RIFF2)                   (RIFF3)   (RIFF3)    (RIFF3)    (RIFF4)
I don't want to live a----lone  a---lone   a---lone    a--lone
(and so on, 4 Riff1, 2 Riff2, 3 Riff3, 1 Riff4... )
As these words are with my tongue 
I question why they even sounds 
I have promised but I lied 
I don't even know myself inside 
I don't want to be, 
I don't wanna be here alone alone  alone alone 
(bridge:,the first guitare plays :2 Riff1, 2 Riff3, puis Riff4 )
Today and tomorrow have become one 
Every single thing that has become none 
You monday child is a beast 
What I've done most to show at the least 
Please don't leave me here, 
please don't leave me here 
Don't you leave me alone,
alone, alone 

NB: here is the solo played by the second guitare during the bridge
  Em            C      Bo     Em             C      Bo
