Verse 1:
             
  I will dedicate and
                 
sacrifice my every-thing
                  
For just a seconds worth
           
of how my story's ending
                  
  And I wish I could know
                       
  if the directions that I take
                          
And all the choices that I make
             
won't end up all for nothing


Chorus:
                
  Show me     what it's for
                 
  Make me     understand it
                          
  I've been crawling in the dark
               
Looking for the answer
                 
  Is there     something more
                 
  Than what    I've been handed?
                          
  I've been crawling in the dark
               
Looking for the answer


Verse 2:
             
  Help me carry on
                
  Assure me its ok to
                        
  Use my heart and not my eyes
       
To navigate the darkness
               
  Will the ending be
                
  ever coming suddenly?
       
Will I ever get to
              
see the ending to my story?


(Repeat Chorus)


Interlude: D-E--D-E--D-E--D-E--G (x4)

So when  and how will I know?(know echo back)


Bridge:

  How much further
            
do I have to go? (have to go)

  How much longer until I
    
finally know? (finally know)
                         
  Cause I'm looking and I just
                 
can't see what's in front of me
   
In front of me


(Repeat Chorus)


Outro: F#m (all the way)
