Verse 1: 

F# G    F#     G F#       G       F#   G  F#
Is this wrong of me? I've come so far, so fast
    G       F#         G       F#
I'm in the dark about a lot of things
G        F#       D
Seems so real, to me!
F#        G  F#
I've consecrated!
      G     F#        G   F#
I wish that I could hate it
          G      F#    G    F#     G         F#
I saw my bloody hands come clean, before my eyes!


Chorus 1:

    Bm    G   F#              E              F#
And I hear my wants and needs again, can you help me?
    Bm    G   F#              E              F#
And I hear a different kind again, someone stop me
    Bm    G   F#               E             F#
And I feel the strain inside my mind, am I crazy?
    Bm    G   F#               E             F#
And I need to shed my skin, reveal this monolith within

Verse 2:

F#  G   F#     G   F#        G         F#     G    F#
Visions plague my dreams, oh god, what beast did this?
    G       F#     G              F#   
I couldn't have: oh Jesus, I just don't know
 G       F#       D    F#  G
What's inside, of me?
F#      G    F#
I've desecrated!
   G      F#      G    F#
My god, I love to hate it!
   G           F#     G            F#     G  F#
My hands are bloody again, there's no reason why!

And I feel the strain inside my mind, am I crazy?
