[E] [G#m] [E]
[A] [E] It's empty in [C#m] the valley of your [E] heart, the sun it [C#m] rises slowly as [E] you walk, away from
all [C#m] the fears and all [E] the faults [G#m] you've left [E]
behind.
[A] [E] The harvest left [C#m] no food for you [E] to eat, you cannibal, [C#m] you meat eater, [E] you see.
But I've [C#m] seen the same, I know [E] the shame [G#] in your [E] defeat.
But I will hold on hope and I'll watch you choke on the noose [B] around your [E] [C#m] neck.
And I'll [A] find strength [E] in pain [C#m] and I [A] will change [E] my ways, I'll know my name as it's cold again.
[C#m] [E]
I have other [C#m] things to fill [E] my time, you take what is [C#m] yours and I'll [E] take mine.
Now let me [C#m] at the truth which will [E]
refresh [B] my broken [E] mind.
So tie me [C#m] to a post and block [E] my ears, I can see where those orphans threw my tears.
And know my call despite my faults and despite my growing fears.
But I will hold on hope and I'll [A]
watch [E] you choke [A] on [E] the noose [B]
around your [C#m] neck.
And I'll [A] find strength [E] in pain and I will [A]
change [E] my ways, [A] I'll know [E] my name [B] as it's cold again.
[E]
So come out [C#m] of your cave walking on [E] your hands and see the [C#m] world hanging upside [E] down.
You can [C#m] understand dependence when [B] you know the [E] maker's plan.
So make your sirens call and sing all you want, I will not hear what you [B] have to say.
[C#m] Cause I [A] need [E] freedom now [C#m] and I [A] need to [E] know how [A] to live [E] my life [B] as it's meant to be.
[E] [A]

[E] And I'll [A]
[E] [A]
watch [E] you [A] choke.
[E] And I [B] will [C#m] [A]
[E] [C#m] [A]
change [E] my ways, [A] I'll know [E] [B]
[E]
my name
