[Intro]
C5
Have you ever been
F5             C5
Blinded by the pain?
Blinded
F5             C5
Blinded by the pain

[Verse 1]
Unwilling to see, senseless
So blinded by selfishness
Only focusing on myself
F5                    C5
  And ignoring anyone else

[Verse 2]
G5 Ab5                      C5
      Becoming driven by despair
G5 Ab5                Bb5       Ab5
      Feeling trapped into a corner

[Bridge]
                    Bb5
Losing more and more   of reality
C5                          Eb5   Bb5
  Perceiving all the hurt only onesidedly

[Chorus]
Ab5 Bb5 C5 Eb5 Bb5         C5
                  Heartache

[Solo]
F5
Losing yourself

[Verse 3]
C5
Feeling too powerless to change
Stuck and unable to escape
Incapable to see another way
F5
  I need someone to shake me
        Ab5
To wake me 

[Bridge]
Bb5                            C5
   I don't even need full clarity
Eb5
Just to start the shift
     Bb5          Ab5
From blind to blurry 

[Chorus]
Bb5 C5 Eb5 Bb5         Ab5
              Heartache
Bb5
Does that mean
C5 Eb5       Bb5
      Be seen   that way?

[Interlude]
C5
  Will we always be seen that way?
And does that really mean we have not changed?

[Solo 2]
C5
Changed
G5 Ab5
      Or does it only mean
C5 G5
Ab5             Bb5              C5
   The truth is not in how we're seen?

[Interlude]
But in the actions
That we're now determined to take
Revealing the new path
         Eb5             Bb5
We chose to mend the heartache
Ab5                      Bb5
   Was it a pattern or a disastrous mistake?
C5                         Eb5           Bb5/F
  Is the truth in what you see or what I say?

[Chorus]
Ab5 Bb5 C5               Eb5
          Losing yourself
Bb5 Ab5 Bb5
        Does that mean
C5 Eb5 Bb5 Ab5
Bb5 C5 Eb5 Bb5
               C5
Blinded by the pain

[Outro]
And does that really mean
We have not changed?
