Verse 1:
Bb                             F 
  I thank these walls, my hideaway
C           C        Am
  My sanctuary to worship the pain
Bb                              F 
  I never thought I'd leave the cave
C                  C   Am
  But I'm more curious than afraid

Verse 2:
Bb                           F 
  Stacking layers like sediment
C                          Gm   Am
  Each one adding weight and compression
           Bb
  And I am tired of forming a cliff face
               F 
  Inside of my chest now
C                 Gm            Am
  My ribs ache from carrying it around

Verse 3:
Bb                             F 
  Craning my neck, I'm looking up
C                         Am
  I'm grieving all that I gave up
Bb                         F 
  Eyes focused on a pin of light
C                           Am
  Arcturus beaming on a summer night

Bb                                F 
  Do you wonder who's looking back?
C                           Gm           Am
  Another life-form on some undiscovered planet
            Bb                                                  F 
  a mirror image of us here, but they're pointing up at our sun and
C
  Asking thеmselves
  C
  What exists bеyond, beyond, beyond, beyond?

Verse 4:
Bb                               F 
  This blinding light, this reckoning
C                                Am
  There's more to life than suffering
Bb                                     F 
  But there's still time, it's not too late
C                     C  C  C   Bb
  Nothing will change until I change
