[G] [Am] [G] [Am]
[G] [Am] [G] [Am]
[D] I'm closer to the [C] golden dawn immersed in Crowler's uniform [G] of imagery.
I'm [C] living in a silent film portraying Himmler's sacred realm [G] of dream reality.
[D#] I'm frightened by the total goal [F] drawing to the ragged hole.
[G] And I [Em] ain't got the power [C] anymore.
No, I ain't got the power [G] anymore.
[Am] I'm [A] [D] the twisted name on Garbo's eyes, living proof of Churchill's [A] lies.
I'm destiny.
[D] I'm torn between the light and dark where others see their target [A] divine symmetry.
Should
[F] I get survivor's [G] band or Herod's loud, the death of [A] man?
I'm sinking [F#m] in the [Em] quicksand of [D] my thought.
And I ain't got the power [A] anymore.
Don't [E] believe [F] in [F#m] yourself.
[D] Don't [D#] deceive with [E] belief.
[A#m] Knowledge [E] comes with [Bm] death's release.
[A] Oh.
[A] [F#m] [E]
[D] I'm not a prophet or a stone-aged man, just a mortal with potential of a superman.
[A] I'm living on.
[D] I never do the logic of homo sapien.
Can't take my eyes from the great salvation [A] of bullshit faith.
[F] If I don't explain what you ought to know, [G] you can tell me all about it on the next bar low.
[A] I'm sinking [F#m] in the quicksand [D] of my thought.
[A]
[E] Don't believe [F#m] in yourself.
[A] Don't [F#] deceive [E] with belief.
[G] Knowledge comes [Bm] with death's release.
Oh.
[A] [G#] [A] [F#m] [E]
[A] Don't [E] believe [C#] in [F#m] yourself.
[F#] Don't deceive [E] with belief.
[G] Knowledge comes with [Bm] death's release.
[A] Oh.
