The  night is deafening
 When the silence is listening
 And I'm down  on my knees
 And I know that something is missing
 Because the  back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in,
 But I choose  to ignore it because I'm always  denying them.
 I'm a  bit of a manic when it's not as I plan it,
 'Cause I start losing  my head
 And then I get up in a panic
 Remember,  when we were kids
 And always knew when to quit it
 Are we denying  a crisis, or are we scared  of admitting it?
 I don't want  to know
 I just wanna run  to you,
 And break off the chains,  and throw them away
I  just wanna be  so much,
 And shake off the dust  that turned me to rust
Sooner  than later,  I'll need a Saviour
 I'll need a Saviour...
It  won't ever change if you want it to stay the same
 I really hate  it, but I know it's hard to chose if you're chained
 And when it's  all you can control, 'cause you've got nothing else to hold
 You're getting tighter  and tighter, it's getting harder  to let it go
 I don't want  to know
 I just wanna run  to you,
 And break off the chains,
 And throw them away
I  just wanna be  so much,
 And shake off the dust  that turned me to rust
Sooner  than later,  I'll need a Saviour
 I'll need a Saviour...
 Stand me up  and maybe I won't be so small,
 Free my hands and feet  and maybe I won't always fall
Save  me
 I just wanna run  to you,
 And break off the chains,
 And throw them away
I  just wanna be  so much
 And shake off the dust  that turned me to rust
I  just wanna run  to you
 And break off the chains,
 And throw them away
I  just wanna be  so much
 And shake off the dust  that turned me to rust
Sooner  than later,  I'll need a Saviour
 I'll need a Saviour...
 NOTES: Make sure that the first G* in the chorus is played on the "ou" of "you"
 and the second is played on the "uch" of "much"

[C]The night is deafening

When the silence is listening
And I'm [Fsus2]down on my knees

And I know that something is missing
Because the[C] back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in,
But I [Cadd9]choose to ignore it because I'm [G]always denying them.

I'm a[C] bit of a manic when it's not as I plan it,
'Cause I start [Fsus2]losing my head

And then I get up in a panic
Remember,[C] when we were kids

And always knew when to quit it
Are we de[Cadd9]nying a crisis, or are we [G]scared of admitting it?

I don't [Dm]want to know

I just wanna [F]run to [G]you,
And break off the [C]chains, and throw them a[Am]way
[Am7]I just wanna [F]be so [G]much,
And shake off the [C]dust that turned me to [Am]rust
[Am7]Sooner than [F]later, I'll need a [G]Saviour
I'll need a [F]Saviour.[Fsus2]..

[C]It won't ever change if you want it to stay the same
I really [Fsus2]hate it, but I know it's hard to chose if you're chained
And when it's[C] all you can control, 'cause you've got nothing else to hold
You're getting [Cadd9]tighter and tighter, it's getting [G]harder to let it go

I don't [Dm]want to know

And break off the [C]chains,
And throw them a[Am]way
[Am7]I just wanna [F]be so m[G]uch,

[Am7]I just wanna [F]run to y[G]ou
And break off the [C]chains,
And throw them a[Am]way
[Am7]I just wanna [F]be so m[G]uch
And shake off the [C]dust that turned me to [Am]rust
[Am7]Sooner than [F]later, I'll need a [G]Saviour
I'll need a [Fsus2]Saviour...
