Verse 1:

     G#m                      D#               E
This phalanx that we are with hearts up on our shields

       G#m
We are holding

            E   C#m
But not for long

G#m                     D#            B
One by one we fall only here to rise again

             F#    E    G#m
In fields of armor we remain

      B    F#                      E       B    D#
Our bodies twisted by the words we can't explain


Verse 2:

G#m                                 D#              E
Bloody knuckles stain the walls and poison fills my lungs

       G#m                       E      C#m
As the beauty of your voice cuts me down

    G#m                                   D#             B
And though we weave in motion through the passing of our days

         F#
We are devotion

   E       G#m
We are the pain

   B   F#
We are beauty

     E       B   D#
That lost its way


Chorus 1:

G#m              E
Broken hearts we sing along to

    B              F# E
The hymns of our devotion

   G#m                E
We gave it all and we lost our minds

         B             F#
We don't need to be forgiven


Verse 3:

E B          F#             G#m
   It's like falling on our swords

E B         C#m       D#
   Just for taking a stand

E B         B          G#m
   It's the journey of love

E B           C#m         D#m G#m
   That we'll never understand


Bridge:

E                          B
Beauty in our union like a fire in the void

    F#                       G#m
Serenading the hopeless like passing of days

E                            B
Through it all we knew we'd stand like the brave

     F#
No beginning No end

          G#m
With Like names old as days

Chorus 2:

     G#m
With bloody knives

    E
And razor blades

   B             F#
We die for our devotion

   G#m
We gave it all

   E
We lost our minds

         B             F# E
We don't need to be forgiven
