A bright blue sky is what I used to see but 
                 Dm                     Bb 
My vision?s been torn out to all that?s been 
                    Dm                         F 
And I know it?s not right and I?ve crossed the line but

I let my heart go just to watch it burn 
            F                  Bb

                    Dm                C 
And you?re covering me like a basking coat 
                  Am                    Bb 
Getting harder to breathe under your control 
Dm      C 
Jealousy 
                   Am       Bb 
Oh can?t you stay away from me? 
 
verse 2 
    Dm                  F 
The voices inside of my head 
        Dm                 Bb 
Keep me wondering where we at 
       Dm                 F 
Like a fire, it starts to spread 
         Dm             Bb 
Covering up my skin and flesh and 
 
Pre-Chorus 2 
       Dm      F 
I keep fighting 
        Dm                   Bb 
But the monster won?t let me win, oh 
       Dm      F 
I keep fighting

But the monster won?t let me win, oh
