I woke up today

Expecting to find all that I sought
              Bb               Gm
And climb the mountains of the life I bought
Dm                 F                    Dm
Finally I'm at the top of every hierarchy
      Bb               Gm
Unfortunately there is no one left
Dm
But me

I'm the king upon this withering throne
Dm                    F                      Dm
I ruled every forest, every mountain, every sea
                 Bb             Gm      Dm
Now there're but ruins left to rule for me
      Eb       Cm

Life turned its back on us

To a world devoid of forests and trees

Drained of every ocean, every sea
           Dm                      F
Just like a useless brick upon the shore
The morning after the storm
Dm             Bb
That swept the bridge away
Gm          F
Relentless tide
Eb
No anger
Cm        D          Eb
Just this relentless time'
F             Eb
That calls us all on
But
