Tomorrow soon turns into  yesterday. Everything we see just fades away

        Am      C          F        Am        G   F               Am         G      E
There's sky and sand where mountains  used to be. Time drops by a second to eternity

There's laughter where I used to  see your tears. It's all done with mirrors, have no fears

        Am      C       F     Am       G         F                 Am            G    E
There's nothing pure or sacred  in our time. The nights we spend together are no crime

Like marble statues all with gold inlaid. In castles built of silence, let us play

Am   C          F         Am       G      F              Am              G   E
Even though our skulls rot  in our flesh. We can build a laser, tear the mesh
[Chorus]
