You wake up as a prisoner of the mercy of the dark
You force your eyes to focus to remember who you are
[C#] Yeah, you've got your reasons [F#] for never looking back
Cause your heart beats a number in the shadow of the cat
And if I'm being honest, I don't hear what God says
voice is quieter than the questions in my head
[D#m] But if I listen closer, [F#] would it all turn out the same?
Would the answers have saved me from the misery of this place?
You force your eyes to focus to remember who you are
[C#] Yeah, you've got your reasons [F#] for never looking back
Cause your heart beats a number in the shadow of the cat
And if I'm being honest, I don't hear what God says
voice is quieter than the questions in my head
[D#m] But if I listen closer, [F#] would it all turn out the same?
Would the answers have saved me from the misery of this place?
