Welcome home
C#m A B
While away
C#m A B
They have tampered with the locks
E F#m
And your things they rearranged
C#m A B
We propose
C#m A B
a better way.
C#m A B
Said they note they left behind
E F#m
In their wake of disarray
A
You fell in place
B
Dont fall asleep
C#m
Theyll find us here
B A
I know a place to disappear
B
As a voice proclaimed
C#m E A
What we are is the sum of a thousand lies
C#m E A
What we know is almost nothing at all
C#m E A
But we are what we are until the day we die
B A
Or until we dont have the strength to go on
B A
Til' we don't have the strength to go on
C#m A B x2
C#m
Let us cry
C#m
Let us be
C#m
Let us open up our hearts
E F#m
Without fear of anything
C#m
Faith alone
C#m
Is all we need
C#m
To traverse this burning bridge
E F#m
Now before it gets too late
A
You said. its fine
B
But the heart reveals
C#m
What smiles betray
B A
Your sad sad eyes gave you away
B
Dont you know
C#m E A
What we are is the sum of a thousand lies
C#m E A
What we know is almost nothing at all
C#m E A
But we are what we are until the day we die
B A
Or until we dont have the strength to go on
B A
Til' we don't have the strength to go on
B C#m A
Our shoulders bear an awful weight
But still we trudge on just the same
B C#m A
These colors run then leave a stain
They blacken our once honest name
B C#m A
But how can we argue, tell me
Over the fury and the fire
B C#m A
How many times can we tell you that we
B
Are not like you, we see right through
A
Your poor disguise that fails to fool
B A
The wary eye that is trained on you
