Verse 1
G#          F#             G#
Superficial nature wearing thin.
  F#            B(1)
I can't seem to begin.
     C#          B(1)     C#              Riff 1
What really do I see when I stare back at me?

G#          F#              G#
As crushing time reveals my foe,
  G#           B(1)
Inheriting all woe.
  C#             B(1)
Solutions in the past,
   C#              Riff 1
Conditioned not to ask.

Chorus
     B
It's what you're meant to be,
C#
Your name and number.
   G#
Be all that you should be.
E(Mute)\           B
 You will recover things you haven't lost,
C#                       G#
Cause they don't see you like you think they do.
E
 Please just become you.

Verse 2
"Release your fear" is what he said.
This all came to a head.
Feel cheated out of you,
Tradition follows through.
-Riff 1-
Though I can't see how this will end,
I know that you will always pull me through.

Verse 3
My soul went searching for a cause
But came back empty-handed.
The emptiness you see...
Building a better me.
