Verse
C G
I look into the night,
Am F
Hoping I might see a light
C G
That'll tell me everything's alright,
Am F
That I can win this fight.
Pre-Chorus
G
But when I look up,
E
All I see,
F
Is the darkness,
G
Staring back at me.
C
You call me damnation,
E
I must pray for salvation.
Am
I'm broken, you say,
F
That's not okay
With me.
C
You steal the air I'm breathing,
E
I don't want your believing.
Am
Want to stand on my own,
F
And prove you wrong.
Verse
C G
Maybe I was born this way,
Am F
Maybe he can take it away.
C G
But I've learned to love this fate,
Am
It's what makes me the person
F
I am today.
Pre-Chorus
G
But when I look up,
E
All I see,
F
Is the darkness,
G
Staring back at me.
C
You call me damnation,
E
Should I pray for salvation?
Am
I'm broken, you say,
F
But that's okay
With me.
C
It's free air I'm breathing,
E
I don't want your believing.
Am
Think I'll stand on my own,
F
And prove you wrong.
Bridge
E
I don't need your prayers,
Am
Don't want to hear you naysayers.
E
I can win this war on my own.
Am
It's my life, and mine alone.
Pre-Chorus
G
Even though I look up
E
And all I see
F
Is the darkness
G
Staring back at me
C
Though you call me damnation,
E
I won't pray for salvation.
Am
I'm broken, you say,
F
But that's okay
With me.
C
It's free air I'm breathing,
E
I don't need your believing.
Am
I can stand on my own,
F
Watch me prove you wrong.
