[F#m]This is the [C#m]life of a [F#m]woman with [C#m]demons
[F#m]The first time we [C#m]met I was [F#m]sure she was [C#m]steaming
[Dm]This is my life, [Dm]this is my life
What a life[F#m] [C#m] [F#m] [C#m]
[F#m]Life isn�??[C#m]t precious an[F#m]d life isn�[C#m]??t sacred
[F#m]Sometimes [C#m]release only [F#m]comes when you [C#m]meet death
[Dm]A night of reprieve we were [Dm]wrecked
when we slept in the [F#m]park[C#m] [F#m] [C#m]
[Dm]When we woke in the morning you [Dm]cried
could I squeeze out the [Am]dark[Em] [F] [G]
[Am]Destroy the [Em]noises that [F]make all the [G]voices
[Am]Get them [Em]out of my [F]head[G]
[Am]Bring on the [Em]screaming and [F]I�??ll take you[G]r demons
[Am]now that I�??[Em]m alread[F]y dead[Em]
(same as verse above)
Days of release when she almost felt better
Gradually faded and words couldn�??t get her
Where is the light, where is the light, get the light
Fearless and clear all her doubts had been cast off
Last night alive is a nightmare I�??m part of
Dreams are a lie, dreams are a lie
So am I
If that�??s all there is then I might as well get in the fire
(same as chorus)
Destroy the noises that make all the voices
Get them out of my head
Bring on the screaming and I�??ll take your demons now that I�??m already dead
Oh how the rights of the righteous kept coming
Shining before like the day
I stand before them and cried that you�??re dying your way
[F#m]I�??m still no[C#m]t sure if th[F#m]e right and th[C#m]e wrong side i[F#m]s one[C#m] [F#m]
