[Dm] _ _
[E] _ We _ _ [B] live as [Em] we dream alone
To break the spell we mix with the others
We are not born [Dm] in isolation
[G#m] _ _ But sometimes it seems that way
We live as we dream alone
We live as we dream alone
We live [E] as we dream alone
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _

[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _
_ [D] _ Sit [G] at my table _
[C] _ _ _ [D] Wait to all around _ myself
To _ [G] see if [C] life is all, it's [D] all or nothing _ _
_ I know [G] the _ barricades
[C] _ And I know [D] the mortar in the wall
Where [G] we can recognise the [C] weapons
_ _ [D] We use them when [E] all gets crazy
And [F#] when the light [Bm] says you can't _ _ sympathise _
This is my last day _ _
[B] Let me be the _ [Bm] judge
[E] _ I raise [E] the wall
[Bm] And I will be [B] the one to knock it [G] _ _ down
[E] _ _ _ _
[D] _ A rich [G] understanding of [C] my finest _ [D] defenses _ _
I proclaim [G] the claims and left [C] unstated
I [D] demand a rematch
_ I [G] decree _ _ [C]
stalemate
_ I define my jupiters
I [G] recognise the _ [C] weapons
I practice and well, I did it for [Em] myself
I proclaim the claims [Bm] and left unstated
And when the light says you can't _ _ sympathise _
[E] This is my last day
_ [Bm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] I [E] raise the wall

And I will be the one to knock it [G] _ down
_ [E] _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ [C] Reach out to _ me
_ And [Am]
hold me tight
And [C] hold that memory
_ _ Let my machine talk to _ me
[C] Let my machine [G] talk to me _
[E] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ This is [G] my world and I am
A [D] world leader pretend _
This is [Em] my _ life
[C] _ _
And this [D] is my [G] time
_ I have been given the [C] freedom _
[D] To do as I see fit _ _
[G] It's high [C] time I raise the [D] wall
And what I've been stressed
_ [E] _ _
Is when I [Bm] said you can't _ _ sympathise
[E] This is how I've stayed
_ [Bm] Let me make it good
_ [E] _ I raise the [E] wall
_ [Bm] And I will be the one to knock it [G] _ down _
[E] _ _ _ _ You better be a martyr
_ _ [Bm] You better end the harmony
_ _ [E] You better end the _ [Bm] mortar
_ I raise the wall
[Em] And I am the only one
[F#] _ _ I will be [B] the one to knock it [G] down _ _
[E] _ _ Knock it down _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
