verse 1Bm
Ravished from our paradise
Bm
A crack in the mirror
DEm
I know who's to blame
Bm
So full of life but paralyzed
Bm
Etched on my iris
DEmCAsus2 ( CCBBDDC# )
But I try not to think of it all...
verse 2Bm
We swore to God in veritas
Bm
And burned our skin
DEm C-5
like it burned our souls
Bm
One dealt with grief by causing pain
Bm
She hid behind maple
DEmCAsus2 ( CCBBDDC# )
and built her own fortress of sound
Pre-Chorus 1
Bm
Hear this melody almost forgotten
ChorusBm
Hush, I've been waiting a lifetime to show you
D
You're returning to heaven
Em
Like dust to dust
Bm
I've been waiting forever to witness your fading
DC#m7/5-/EC
Like ashes to a - shes.

Why do you shine as I suffer in pain?

The greatest scars remain within

Leaving you now with a heart black as cardinal sin.
