[Fate, Fate is so unkind, now I should have known
Blind leading the blind, reaping what I’ve sown

Am
Hell is still overburdened, I must stand and wait in line
G E
I may never know for certain when will be my time
Am
How was I considered evil, pleasures taken in this life
G E
Someone granted me reprieval, decades spent in strife
F E
Led to nothing, repeated in my mind
F E
Led to nothing, if only I was born another time
Chorus:
Am G Am G
Hell is still overburdened, I must stand and wait in line
Am G F G Am
Hell is still overburdened, how have I been so determined malign
Am

Am
It’s the closing of the curtain, in the play that was my life
G E
Countless chapters left unopened, tragedies inside
Am
I was fighting for a reason, holy blessed homicide
G E
Seems I have committed treason, all I’ve sacrificed
F E
Led to nothing, repeated in my mind
F E
Led to nothing, if only I was born another time
