VERSE 1
********
What began as hope
Became the fate of many nations
Founded on a lie believed by everyone
Slandered and betrayed
A character assassination
Watch the guilty fade
Now the work is done

VERSE 2
********
Ghosts of early days
Gather round the later rivals
All parade upon the earth to which they`re bound
Silent in their course
They steal across the icy stations
Words are useless now
They fall upon the ground

Hold on, when I`m dead and gone from you
Remember me as light breaking through

BRIDGE
*******
And in the end
When other days have passed you by
If beauty has a name
Waiting beneath the ruby sky
One and the same
Wanting to keep the pain away
In errors made again
I can see everything get closer every day

------------------------------------------------------
ACOUSTIC PICKING - Play this from to the end of the song.
