C F C And if a savior came upon a tray of gold C F C you'd insist that he had already been sold Am even though you knew he hadn't Dm G You're afraid to trade the bad in C for a good you don't know Am Like a certain generation Dm in a proud and headstrong nation G C F C who expects God to dance whenever she plays the fifeVerso 2:
G F C And if you want to talk in terms of the survival of the fittest G F C then take a look at the soul's auction house and whose the highest bid is Am Am7 You understand the fear of man Dm G C F C but you forgot about the fear of God Am And to the bloody ransom Dm G that makes an ugly soul turn handsome C F C you give a condescending nodC F CC F C There's a sense of desparation in your touch C F C and you say out loud you hate it very much Am but you're addicted to your sadness Dm G cause it creates the touch of madness C The kind you like inside your veins Am Oh, why are you so hardened? Dm You know you could be pardoned G C I guess you just will not let go of the reinsVerso 3:
C F C The lexicon of death is all you know C F C You feel suffocated by the falling snow Am Cause you miss the beauty there Dm in the quiet holy air G C and start looking for a desert you can roam Am Your eyes too closed to see Dm the secret ministry G C of the frost upon the window of your home Am Oh, why are you so hardened? Dm You know you could be pardoned G C F C and then you would not feel so alone Outro You're not alone. You're not alone. You're not aloneVerso 4:
