Dm
I'm a victim of circumstance
Dm
Always willing to take a chance
Bb
A unique individual
C
And my pain is residual

Dm
Living with this duality
Dm
I say fuck this calamity
Bb
I'm aware of my sanity
C
But inside I don't want to be

Dm
I've got his world on my shoulders
Dm
Weighing down like a boulder
Bb
All these things that I'm questioning
C
Is the sum above everything

Dm
I'm not bitchin' about this now
Dm
Try releasing but don't know how
Bb
I accept the way that I live
C                             Dm
Even though I know I can give now

Dm             Bb
If I'm not the one
C                   Dm
Still I won't step aside
Dm           Bb
What have I become
C                 Dm
Victim of foolish pride
Dm             Bb
If I'm not the one
C                           Dm
Then tell me why I act this way
Dm            Bb
Your begotten son
C                      Dm
Is pain everything you feel?

Bb - Dm - Bb - Dm - Bb
Bb - C - Dm

Dm
With all the glamour and glory
Dm
Well I'm not leaving don't worry
Bb
There's so much more to this story
C
'Cuz I'm an infinite quarry

Dm
This is my only version
Dm
Of what I see and I'm merging
Bb
Everything I'm witnessing
C
Is anyone listening

Dm
If it's too late to be looking back
Dm
There's two ways that we can react
Bb
Never mind the self-pitying
C
Don't you follow that reasoning

Dm
Under struggle where we shine
Dm
I won't let this be left behind
Bb
There's a purpose for everything
C                                   Dm
Without thinking were strengthening now
