[INTRO]
Am 2x
[VERSE 1]
[Am]They never taught us how to lo[C]ve
So we use our pa[G]in to comfort us [F] [G]
[Am]And we never practice what we [C]preach
Instead we [G]find someone else to [F]tea[G]ch
[Am]We try not to see with our eye[C]s
And fill our p[G]lates with dozens of [F]lie[G]s
[Am]We try so hard to keep it in [C]
We turn aw[G]ay from what lies with[F]in [G]
[CHORUS]
We are s[Am]plintered and we are [C]rotten
[G]Deep within the walls that we've for[F]gotten[G]
All the [Am]answers to all our pr[C]oblems
[G]Lie within the one who tries to do[F]dge them [G]
[VERSE 2]
[Am]We're so afraid to be alone[C]
So we hoard our p[G]ain and call it home [F] [G]
[Am]They never taught us how to loo[C]k inside
[G]Only how to run and how to dry o[F]ur eyes[G]
[Am]We dig ourselves in too dee[C]p
How many of us di[G]e and pretend to live[F] [G]
[Am]We stop the life from leaking in[C]
When we turn aw[G]ay from what lies within[F] [G]
[CHORUS]
We are s[Am]plintered and we are [C]rotten
[G]Deep within the walls that we've for[F]gotten[G]
All the [Am]answers to all our pr[C]oblems
[G]Lie within the one who tries to do[F]dge them [G]
[Chorus variation Outro]
We are s[Am]plintered and we are [C]rotten
[G]Deep under the floorboards we've for[F]gotten[G]
But all [Am]the answers to all ou[C]r problems
[G]Lie within the one who tries to do[F]dge them [G]
