    E                B  
My teachers always told me
       C#m             A
that I had to have a plan
But they're preaching something
E                 B
they don't understand
            E
The little Hitler's
           B  
of the forgotten love
                  C#m
They'll shoot you right
in your face and watch
      A
you spill your blood
     E
And you tell me that
B
I'm the one who
C#m              A
needs to have a plan

C#m               A
Tie me to the road and
watch my hands bleed
E
Pin me to a cross
   B
and crucify me
C#m
Drag me through the
    A
dirt of guilt and envy
E
Open up your eyes
B
and you will see

              A
You're not a saviour
or a saint Well then
 B
Who are you to me?
(Take a look at yourself)

Chorus:
E
I can't help you
B
You don't stand a
C#m
chance to make it
       G#m
If you really
want help just
 A
Look inside the
mirror and
 B
Tell me what
you see (Take a
look at yourself) - x2

Mother, why do you believe it will always be okay?
Another wishful dream that you believe
And what we have here, is people selling fear
It's a joke by now, we've become not clear
And you tell me that
I'm the one who needs to have a plan

Television plays, effected my mind
Channels all the same, or am I blind?
Imagination is, it's just a figment
Of reality, when will you see?
You're not a savior or a saint
Well, then, who are you to me?
(Take a look at yourself)

Chorus - x4

I can't help you,
you don't stand a chance to make it
If you really wanna help, just...
I can't help you,
you don't stand a chance to make it
If you really wanna help, just...
