Cm                                        G#    G 
My black backpack's stuffed with broken dreams  
Cm                                  G#    G 
20 bucks should get me through the week  
Cm                        G#     G 
Never said a word of discontentment  
Cm                              G# 
Fought it a thousand times but now  
             G 
I'm leaving home  
  
Cm  
Here in the shadows  
Fm        G 
I'm safe I'm free  
Cm  
I've nowhere else to go but  
Fm              G            Cm 
I cannot stay where I don't belong  
  
Cm                                   G#   G 
Two months pass by and it's getting cold  
Cm                              G#   G 
I know I'm not lost I am just alone  
Cm                                     G#       G 
But I won't cry I won't give up I can't go back now 
Cm                             G#    G  
Waking up is knowing who you really are  

Chorus 2x 

Cm                 G#          G       Cm 
Show me the shadow where true meaning lies  
Cm               G#        G      Cm 
So much more is display in empty eyes
