On the edge of this grave

We'd kill them just like the others who tried
A augmentedA D MajorD
To pull us out of this cave

When our questions have the courage to
B minorBm F# minorF#m A augmentedA
Come and drag us from our fiction
B minorBm F# minorF#m
Those who fear the grave

And if we're ever gonna see the sunrise
Somebody's gotta wake up
D MajorD A augmentedA
Before the morning comes
