[Chorus 1]
D5                Bb5
  Where would you rather be?

G5         F5    D5
  Anywhere   but here

              Bb5
When will the time be right?

G5            F5
  Anytime but now
[Interlude] | D5 | Bb5 | G5 | F5 | x2 | E5 | E5 | E5 | E5 | x3 [Verse 1]
       E5
On the edge of sleep, I was drifting for half the night

E5
Anxious and restless, pressed down by the darkness

E5
  Bound up and wound up so tight

E5
So tight...

E5
So many decisions, a million revisions

E5
Caught between darkness and light...

A5
  Wilderness of mirrors

C#5                  A5
   World of polished steel

               C#5
Gears and iron chains

                  A5
Turn the grinding wheel

                  C#5
I run between the shadows

                             B5    A5
Some are phantoms, some are real
[Chorus 1]
D5                Bb5
  Where would you rather be?

G5         F5    D5
  Anywhere   but here

              Bb5
When will the time be right?

G5            F5
  Anytime but now

D5                Bb5
  Where would you rather be?

    G5
The doubt and the fear

             F5
I know would all disappear

   D5              Bb5
Anywhere but here

             G5     F5    E5
Anywhere but here...
[Verse 2]
       E
On the edge of sleep, I heard voices behind the door

    E5
The known and the nameless, familiar and faceless

   E5
My angels and my demons at war

A5          F5
  At war...

E5
  Which one will lose depends on what I choose

   E5                    A5
Or maybe which voice I ignore...

              C#5
Wilderness of mirrors

                  A5
Streets of cold desire

                     C#5
My precious sense of honor

                       A5
Just a shield of rusty wire

                   C#5
I hold against the chaos

                      B5      A5
And the cross of holy fire
[Chorus 1]
D5                Bb5
  Where would you rather be?

G5        F5    D5
  Anywhere  but here

              Bb5
When will the time be right?

G5            F5
  Anytime but now

D5                Bb5
  Where would you rather be?

    G5
The doubt and the fear

             F5
I know would all disappear

   D5               Bb5
Anywhere but here

             G5     F5   E5
Anywhere but here...

A5              C#5
  Wilderness of mirrors

             A5
So easy to deceive

                     C#5
My precious sense of rightness

                  A5
Is sometimes so naive

                  C#5
So that which I imagine

                  B5       A5
Is that which I believe

E5
  On the edge of sleep, I awoke to a sun so bright

           E5
Rested and fearless, cheered by your nearness

               A5
I knew which direction was right

           F5
Was right...

    E5
The case had been tried by the jury inside

    E5
The choice between darkness and light...

    E5
The choice between darkness and light
