[A]
[Em] [G] [D] I was intrigued by your [A] spirit, and [E] your eyes which showed [G] no pain.
[D] You were screaming but I [A] couldn't hear it, [E] and your movements would not explain [D] why you condemned me.
[A]
[E] To a world [G] of senseless [D] pride, [A]
[Em] fear is the wall I [D] must climb.
[A]
[Em] [G] And I've seen some heroes in my day, [A] I've seen the failures in yours, and [Bm] I've tried to connect us in [E] some way.

[A] And
[Em] pain is [G] the wall I [D] must climb.
[A]
[Em] [G]
[D] So quiet is [A] the terror [Em] that swallows me like [G] the night.
So [D] quiet is the [A] sickness in the [E] song that I [A] long to write.
But I shall [D] receive my passion [A]
[E] eternally from [G] you, the bitter stars that [D] shine.
[A]
[Em] And doubt [G] is the wall [D] I must climb.
[A]
[Em] In my world of convergence, [A] I'm a prisoner only unto me.
But I wait for the [F#m] emergence of [G] the form I shall soon [Em] meet.
Till then I [D] wait in the [A] museum,
[Em] at the [G] museum of [D] my [A]
[Em] fate is [G] the wall I [D] must climb.
[A]
[Em] [D]
And hanging knees [A] in the shadows, [E] and he's looking for something [G] to do.
[D] Until we find who won [A] the battles, though [E] the evil and the [D] true.
And the judges there in [A] recess, until they [E] receive some sort of [G] sacred [D] sign.

[Em] Belief [G] is the wall [D] I must climb.
[A]
[Em] [G] Have [D] you ever looked at your [A] face so much, [E] until it became [G] askew?
Because [D] the road that's less [A] traveled is the [E] one that leads right [G] back to you.
[D] And Lord I'm frightened for I [A] fear that my [E]
lack of light [G] is my [D]
crime.
