Remove Ads AYou were born
EAs a church
DFor your mother's old ideals
ANot given choice
F#mOn who to be
D AJust told to "Think and act like me"
AYou came to be
EAs a means
D ATo reclaim your tarnished name
ANot given choice
F#mOn how to feel
DAnd with no tools with which to heal
EYou came to see
AThe more you stray
F#m E AThe more that you are pushed away
EYou have not done
AWhat you're demanded
F#m E ASo now you have been left abandoned
A EYou rip the chunks from your head, wishing you were dead
D AOr at least a little bit sedated
A F#mMake sure the windows are smashed, the paintings are slashed
D AI don't want the life I'm fated
A EIs this all that there is, I'm no longer a kid
D ABut the world still works the same
A F#mBut then you notice a plant, beautiful at that
D AGrowing up your windowpane
ATime moves slow
EBut you watch it grow
D E AThrough the cracks left in your soul
A EThere's no need to burn the foundation down
D E AThat'll ruin all the growth
You don't have to be a church
You can be a garden
You don't have to be a church
You can just be you

A Amaj7The wallpaper's amazing
A7I never thought I'd see
DSomething quite like this
DmBut to my surprise
AThe walls fall down around me
Dmaj7 DInternal bliss
A Amaj7The colors are amazing
A7I can feel my heartbeat fading
DInto a chorus of pure hope
DmBut to my surprise
AWe're all here screaming softly
Dmaj7 DInternal bliss
A DFeel alone so I know I'm not dead yet
AI can't wait til we're whole again
DIf there's something that I'm meant to see
DI hope it waits for me
Amaj7 A7 D Dm
AI wanna sleep out in your garden
ALet the lovely bugs in
DThe rain will wash me pure
Maybe then
AI'll grow what I've been missing
DInternal bliss
