[Chorus]
Em G F
Set fire to an icon
Em
Set fire to the lie
Em G F
Set fire, bid farewell
Em
I'll be a martyr to myself
C Am
Where do I go
Em
If every turn there's a vulture waiting
C Am
To pick at my bones
N.C.
And bury me alive?
Em 8x
[Verse]
Em F Em
My lungs are whitewashed
F Em
A million thoughts on the tip of my tongue
F Em
I can't keep hiding
F Em F Em
My guts in tight knots
F Em
Abandon who I've become
F Em
Or fight for what's inside me?
[Chorus]
Em G F
Set fire to an icon
Em
Set fire to the lie
Em G F
Set fire, bid farewell
Em
I'll be a martyr to myself
C Am
Where do I go
Em
If every turn there's a vulture waiting
C Am
To pick at my bones
Em
And bury me alive?
Em A F
[Bridge]
Em Am F Em
It's me against the world
Em
It's me against the world
Em
It's me against the world
[Bridge 2 + Breakdown]
Em
I feel their claws sinking in
Em
As the life spirals out from my inner self
N.C.
Let the earth where I carved my name burn
Em
Burn
[Chorus]
Em G F
Set fire to an icon
Em
Set fire to the lie
Em G F
Set fire, bid farewell
Em
I'll be a martyr to myself
C Am
Where do I go
Em
If every turn there's a vulture waiting
C Am
To pick at my bones
Em
And bury me alive?
C Am
Where do I go
Em
If every turn there's a vulture waiting
C Am
To pick at my bones
Em
And bury me alive?
[Outro]
Em
It's me against the world
Em
It's me against the world
