Night as dark as my thoughts sets the scene for my return

Dm                        Bb         Am
Lightning nips at my heels as I race home

Dm               Bb                   Am
Wearily I stagger towards the song of her pale voice

Dm                    Bb     Am
Demons jeer my attempt to be free

 Windows cast her gentle reflection

    Dm                C       Bb    F C
Her somber silhouette dances for me
[Pre-Breakdown: This entire part is Dm]
Dm
Look at you, you miserable fool
Get off your knees, your prayers fall upon deaf ears God's turned his back on you, Heaven's gates are shut And now you're knocking on the devil's door [Breakdown: This entire part is Dm as well]

I've been expecting you for some time sir
Allow me to introduce myself I'm the one who pulls on all the strings son You're lucky I don't kill you where you stand [Outro]
Dm             Bb
 This can't be real

  Gm                 Am Bb
Tonight I raise my glass

Dm               Bb
 There's nothing left

    Gm          Am      Bb
For I know it's time to move on

Dm            Bb
 All hope has failed

   Gm                Am Bb
My patience will not last

Dm            Bb
 I've lost my soul

  Gm     Am
Tomorrow I will be gone
Dm
