Intro:
     Cm               Ab
Iʼm tired of feeling comatose
      Cm                  Ab
Iʼve lost the me that I loved most
     Cm               Ab
Iʼm barely holding on to smoke
     Cm               Ab
Iʼm barely holding on to smoke

Cm Ab Cm Ab Cm Ab Bb

Verse:
 Cm
Iʼm not addicted but Iʼm not clean

Why do I do this to myself on repeat?
Ab
So disconnected from my own reality

Am I man or machine?
      Cm
If I give, will you take?

As I lie for the taste
           Ab
I just fuck it up
             Cm Bb
As you lap it up
 Ab
(Go)
                   F
Through flesh and bone
       Bb Ab
I walk alone

(Go)
                  Fm
If I run, will I fade away?
    Cm                         Bb
ʼCause I donʼt wanna leave it behind

Chorus:
            Cm            Ab
In all my pride, all my shame
          Cm            Ab
I find strength enough to show you
       Cm               Ab
I may bend but I wonʼt break
           Bb
Because I define who I
              Bb
Define who I become

Verse:
   Cm
I miss the me that I have not met

Choking in silence on the words left unsaid
   Ab
I feel a sickness for a home Iʼve never been

And I exist in black and white but now Iʼm seeing red
    Cm
I built a shelter in complacency
                                                  Ab
Locked myself in and set fire and threw away the key

Too scared to live but Iʼm afraid to die

So am I living or am I just alive?

Chorus:
         Cm            Ab
All my pride, all my shame
          Cm           Ab
I find strength enough to show you
       Cm         Ab
I may bend but I wonʼt break
     Bb
I define who I become
            Cm               Ab
ʼCause Iʼm tired of feeling comatose
      Cm                       Ab
Iʼve lost the me that I loved most
     Cm               Ab
Iʼm barely holding on to smoke
         Bb
But Iʼm holding on, Iʼm holding on

Bridge:
    Cm
Broken, Iʼm holding on
                    Bb Cm
Driven to right the wrong
            Ab                   Eb    Bb
Silent, connected yet I feel so separated
  Cm
Fallen through flesh and bone
                 Bb Cm
Frozen, I stand alone
                          Bb
Deafened in silence, the voice remains

          Cm                Ab
Behind my eyes, beneath my rage
          Cm               Ab
I was struggling to get through
        Cm              Ab
Out of time and out of faith

I define who I become

Chorus:
            Cm            Ab
In all my pride, all my shame
          Cm           Ab
I find strength enough to show you
       Cm         Ab
I may bend but I wonʼt break
          Bb
ʼCause I define who I
              Cm
Define who I become
     Cm                Ab
Iʼm tired of feeling comatose
   Cm                 Ab
I lost the me that I loved most
     Cm               Ab
Iʼm barely holding on to smoke
         Bb
But Iʼm holding on, Iʼm holding on
     Cm             Ab
Iʼm tired of being human, tired of being numb
 Cm                    Ab
Waiting for the holy ghost to come
    Cm                        Ab
So save me from the webs that I have spun
    Bb
Iʼm holding on, holding on
                                Cm
Iʼm holding on, holding on to smoke
