      G#m           G#sus2
I'm a doorman at my Death Row

    G
You faceless foe of heart

   G#m               G#sus2           G
An accent, a drop of darkest blood on snow

G
White feather in the tar...

  G#m               G#sus2
A tearstain on your frozen face...

G
 A life - in black and white

 You slaughtered my soul again

You're breaking my heart again

 To squeeze out a rhyme, I bid you farewell

AM7                    F#m               B
 Stupidity, ignorance, lights on for the blind

Now I will hit you where it hurts

A            B          E
Take what is rightfully mine

  B/D#   C#m
I need a sign

                  F#sus    F#
That you're worth fighting for

A          B        E
Winning or losing, alone

I am only a pawn

 I'm tired of pleasing you

 Discolored this emptiness, wrapped in a scheme

E   Bsus        B
I... delayed my dreams to see

G#m  E            Bsus      B/D#            A
 Who blinded your eyes from things that are real...

            C#m                         A
For me, I believe in the taste of bittersweet

                        Bsus      B
Dying fountains full of stories untold

        A                                C#m
After a history of "losses" attained the victory where it occurred

        Bsus            B                  G#sus     G#/B#
Lips so cold, the final testing ground for beautiful words

C#m                            G#m               G#m/B    G#/B#
Diving in the seas of sin, without knowing where lies the bottom

C#m                           G#sus        G#         A
Idle moments spawned you idle people, no morality, no soul

              B
Sabotage or a fatal mistake?

G#m               A
Scandal born, new race

             B
Unauthorized use, not stealing?

G#m                               Bm
We've no rights, just passion and rage

 Stand on a chair and scream as the tables turn
