F#m I've been burning And dousing the flames I feel the whiplash Of the backlash on my face I melt to sleep at night But I wake to trip the day Never for you never for me Would I kiss your feet of clay Chorus: B I'm still alive and so should I C Soak up the wave of compromise D Am I the victim of youth C Is this the truth? F#m Why don't you tell me Why don't you tell me There's no conscience In charity or shame The voice deceive me But believe me its the same I see the black in white And the color in the gray Better for me better for you Going to bleach it all away Chorus: I'm still alive and so should I Soak up the wave of compromise I see the scars, I hear the lies So what's the truth Why don't you tell me Why don't you tell me Why don't you tell me I'm still alive and so should I Soak up the wave of compromise I see the scars, I hear the lies So what's the truth Why don't you tell me | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Chords fingeringsAm C D F#m B |
