[D]
[Gm] [D] In [A] the darkness there's a cloud And I suppose that's the idea
[D] So to the ground, stilting swiftly I proposed On the chance now one could hear me
[Gm] [D]
Wary footsteps [A] in the grave But I'm not frightened, I won't fear me
All this time I'd never sang so low [Dm] That's [A] why I feel so far [Gm] away
[D]
[A]
[D] [A]
[D] [A]
[D]
[A]
[A] My hands were crossed [F] and my heart beat with [Gm] a sound
[Dm] Like a stampede around [A] one's [Dm] feet I'd never dare, a situation [Gm] near for [A] me
That's why I feel so far away
[E] I'm [D] charging all to use
And wasting time
This is my only move
[Bb] [D]
That's the only way
My [D]
[A] [D] god, I'm [Dm] not okay
[D]
[A] [D]
[A] Walking out at confusion [D] I had made a mistake
I had stopped to confusion And there was no [Dm] escape
[G] [A] [D]
On this [F] quest I had sacrificed [A] everything I would [F] not leave this [D] place empty-handed [Dm] again
There was no escape [A] And nothing's in [D] sight
I pursued the aim [Cm] I'd pushed it
What a heathen [B] to make an impression Introducing the star of the [D] show
[Bm] Jacky fingers in laughing Your [E] eyes could not lie
I held my [D] back till the fire extoled
[Dm]
I was a liar, I was in [D] control All I desired was death at the [Dm] throne
I was a number, all of me burned
[D]
I would rip off this crown if I could But it's blackened itself to my [Dm] skull
I think someone said my spirit was toast
The flames burst [A] and I smiled, I smiled for you
[Dm] [A] [Dm]
I'm impressed that I could not see it Fill this maze
Different skin, [D] mouth was the same I [Am] [F] am numb
That [Bb] front row [F] seat
[A] Oh, my soul
[E] Went quiet
[Bb] For the first [F] time [D] today

[Bb] done [F] [D] to [C] me?
[F] I'm fucked [D] with this trust
[F] That you're what [D] I am tired
[F] Yet [D] I am kind
I [C] don't care [F] anymore
[G] Dreams of [F] fire scared my [D] face
[Dm] But I [C] can't fail [F] anymore
As [D] my life has come to [Dm] an end
No [F] more tears anymore
