The k[F]iller lives in[C]side me: [Dm] yes, I can [C]feel him move.
So[F]metimes he's lightly [C]sleeping in the [Dm]quiet of hi[C]s room,
but t[G]hen his eyes [C]will [Dm]rise [Em]and [Dm]stare [C]through [G]mine;
[C]he'll [Dm]speak [Em]my [Dm]words [C]and [Am]slice my mind i[G]nside.
Yes the k[F]iller lives[C][Dm][C]

[F]Angels live in[C]side me[Dm]: I can [C]feel them smile...
Their [F]presence strokes and [C]soothes the t[Dm]empest in my[C] mind
[G]and their love [C]can [Dm]heal [Em]the [Dm]wounds [C]that [Gsus]I have [G]wrought
[C]They [Dm]watch [Em]me [Dm]as [C]I [Am]go to fall
[G]-well, I know I shall be caught,
while the [F]angels live.[C][Dm][C]

[Adim]

How can I be free?
How can I get help?
Am I really me?
Am I someone else?
