I was recently considering taking the pain with the pleasure

Lift up your veil of tears

Don't be disappointed child, if your prayers go unanswered

We are not responsible for these sad circumstances
C#m      B      A            B      A      E
Secret agents and freedom fighters on those impossible missions

Better put your toys and games away

In your early years

A      C#m      B      A
Behind your veil of tears

B      A
So frustrated
G      D
Get up anyway
B      A
So complicated
G      D
Changes every day

B            A
So the darkness fades
G                  A      B
And the light, will come shining through

I heard the eyes that look to a better world always hide beneath the veil of tears

And you hide no more
