Guitar Chords & Lyrics) *
[Intro]
(Piano/Atmospheric guitar)
Bm - G - D - A (2x)
[Verse 1]
Bm G
I used to dream of better days to come
D A
But every time I wake I'm back where I begun
Bm G
Facing these old walls, crumbling in grace
D A
Staring at the dust on the mirror every day
[Pre-Chorus]
Em G
Looking at the reflection, a stranger in the light
Bm A
I don’t recognize the boy I used to be inside
[Chorus]
Bm G
Everyone is smiling, hiding what’s within
D A
Nobody sees the cracks beneath the skin
Bm G
The world keeps turning, everything has changed
D A
While I’m the only one who’s feeling estranged
Em G
This is reality, the world we’re struggling in
Bm A
Clinging to a sliver of hope, though it’s paper thin
Em G
Sometimes I’m exhausted, sometimes the tears fall
Bm A
But I have no choice but to stand up tall
G A Bm
In this sea of loneliness, I’m searching for my soul
[Verse 2]
Bm G
The friends I used to know have drifted far away
D A
The streets we used to walk are different today
Bm G
If change is a truth that’s so hard to embrace
D A
Then let my heart be made of stone to win this race
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Em G
The pain has been a teacher, stern and wise
Bm A
Taught me how to live through the lows and the highs
Em G
After the darkest night has finally reached its end
Bm A
The sun will rise again (The sun will rise again!)
[Chorus]
(Full Band - Heavy Distortion)
Bm G
This is reality, the world we’re struggling in
D A
Clinging to a sliver of hope, though it’s paper thin
Bm G
Sometimes I’m exhausted, sometimes the tears fall
D A
But I have no choice but to stand up tall
Em G Bm
In this sea of loneliness, I’m searching for my soul
[Bridge]
G A
Everything is different
Bm F#m
Nothing is the same
G A Bm
In this reality, I will survive...
A
Wait for one more light!
[Guitar Solo]

Bm - G - D - A
[Outro]
Bm G
Reality...
D A
Searching for my soul...
Bm G
(Fade out with atmospheric tones)
