DbDb
All out of exits, all out of enemies
DbDb
You built this prison and buried the key
DbDb BbmBbm
I’ve given up on giving in
DbDb BbmBbm DbDb BbmBbm DbDb
Temptation mocks me from a distance, but I won’t let it win
BbmBbm
This thin façade could never last
DbDb BbmBbm DbDb F minorFm
Like a snake that sheds its skin, illusions shatter like glass
BbmBbm GbGb BbmBbm GbGb BbmBbm
The sceptic inside me believes what he knows
GbGb AbAb
Cynically silent but with nothing to show
BbmBbm GbGb BbmBbm DbDb BbmBbm
The devil beside me is whispering doubt in my ear
AbAb GbGb BbmBbm
I’ll keep pretending not to hear
BbmBbm AbAb BbmBbm
So here I am for what it’s worth
GbGb BbmBbm
I spilled my blood against the earth
AbAb BbmBbm GbGb
Just to see the world in colour
BbmBbm
Dead; left for dead and left to rot
DbDb BbmBbm
A augmentedA tainted memory, an empty afterthought
BbmBbm GbGb AbAb
I’d lay my whole life on the line just to see this through
BbmBbm
If it consumes me, let the script upon my tomb read:
BbmBbm
I found my love and let it kill me
