They're covered with a film, you're blinded by yourself

Verse 2
F           C#
Still alive, that much is true,
G#                      D#
I've never lied well I guess I've told a few
F                                   C#

There's nothing to see because I've got nothing to show
          G#                              D#
The conversation got too deep I shrug and tell you I don't know
F                               C#
This world can be so hard, this world can be so cruel
    G#                             D#
Sometimes I fall apart I feel just like a useless tool

    G# D#
Life could you be a little softer to me?         Life could you be more
gentle to me?
F         C# G#                D#
Yeah I know, this is a selfish plea
        F           C#          G#                    D#
Because Christ sacrificed, his flesh on the cross for me
F        C#                  G#                        D#
But this world is hard it's, cruel and I wish it would be
F        C#     G#        D#
Softer   softer  softer   softer to me
