(intro) Am  C G/B Am  Dm (2x) Am  C G/B

(verse 1)
Am C
So this is where
G/B  Am
that road goes
    C           G/B
The shaded back road
     Am
that desperate chose
   C
it leads you here
G/B     Am
to your last fight
    C           G/B
and its ticking by

(refrain)
F        G    Am  C
  You're dying   slowly
F G Am G
      open your eyes

(chorus)
F                   G
  This fight you're failing
       Am
losing pieces of your life
F                G
  This picture's fading
          Am
there are memories on the line
F             G
  so one more battle
        Am
can you turn it all around?
F          G
  It's all depending on
Am
you this final round

(verse 2)
Am
  With every step you find that
C                 G/B
vision gets a bit more hazy
Am                            C
  You fight for balance struggling
                  G/B
in the wake of fragments of dreams
Am
  and they're ending here
C             G/B         Am
lying broken dying at your feet
        C         G/B
will you turn and leave?

(repeat refrain and chorus)

(bridge)
F                G    Am  G
  you're all you have left
F               G  Am     G
  and you can't be carried
F                        G
  your condition is "breaking"
Am                  F         G    Am  G
  your back is crumbling open your eyes
F                        G
  your condition is "breaking"
Am                  F         G    Am  G
  your back is crumbling open your eyes
F                  Am
  is this what you want for your life?
F  G        Am
  open your eyes
F                  Am
  is this what you want for your life?
F  G        Am
  open your eyes

(repeat chorus)

(outro)
F                G    Am  G
  you're all you have left
F G         Am
  open your eyes
F G         Am
  open your eyes
F G         Am
  open your eyes
