[Em]Are we so alone,
So distant,
So [D]forgotten,
As we t[Cadd9]hink ourselves t[D/F#]o be?
These are our l[Em]ifes
But did they ever even [D]matter?
Are we [Cadd9]worth rememberi[D/F#]ng?
[Em]These machines feed on the t[Cadd9]ears of broken lifes and dying dr[G]eams
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, O[D]hhhhhhhhhh)
[Em]We're throwing wrenches in th[Cadd9]e gears
Our lifes will not be lived in v[G]ain
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, O[D]hhhhhhhhhh)
[Em]When this is all said and done
We spent this l[Cadd9]ife on the run
Judged by the [G]company w[D/F#]e keep
Our language, [Em]buried inside
These lungs that [Cadd9]keep us alive
We [G]breathe so se[D/F#]lfishly
Promises we plan to [Em]break
Are made in whispered [D]voices
Cause our d[Cadd9]espair knows many [D/F#]names
We make [Em]mistakes
But we apologize with [D]roses we [Cadd9]never stop to smell on the [D/F#]way
[Em]These machines feed on the t[Cadd9]ears of broken lifes and dying dr[G]eams
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, O[D]hhhhhhhhhh)
[Em]We're throwing wrenches in th[Cadd9]e gears
Our lifes will not be lived in v[G]ain
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, O[D]hhhhhhhhhh)
[Em]When this is all said and done
We spent this l[Cadd9]ife on the run
Judged by the [G]company w[D/F#]e keep
Our language, [Em]buried inside
These lungs that [Cadd9]keep us alive
We [G]breathe so se[D/F#]lfishly
[Em]We fell [G]from the [D/F#]sky tod[Em]aaay
[Em]We melt [G]into [D/F#]balls of cl[Em]aay
[Em]We sell [G]ourselves [D/F#]every[Em]day
[Em]Don't tell m[Cadd9]e how t[G]o live thi[D/F#]s way
[Em]Pushed so far to the edge We[Cadd9] teeter just on the b[G]rink
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, [D]Ohhhhhhhhhh)
[Em]You can lead me to the blo[Cadd9]odbath
But you can't make me[G] drink
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, [D]Ohhhhhhhhhh)
[Em]As These machines feed on th[Cadd9]e tears of broken lifes and dying [G]dreams
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, O[D]hhhhhhhhhh)
[Em]We're throwing wrenches in th[Cadd9]e gears
Our lifes will not be lived in v[G]ain
(Oh, Ohhhhhhhh, Oh, O[D]hhhhhhhhhh)
my life will not be lived in [Em]vain
