Em C Am G D
The very brightest candle of all has been extinguished
Em C Am G D
Smothered by those who could not bear to face reality
Em D Bm C
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Am G
Made foundations quiver
Em D Bm C
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
Em
And I shiver...
Em C
The leftover tallow just doesn’t contain
Am G D
All the right answers
Em C Am G D
Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom
D
An untouched snow turns red
Innocence dies
Em D Bm C
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Am G
Made foundations quiver
Em D Bm C
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
Em
And I shiver...
Em C
This black page in history is not colourfast,
will stain the next
Am G D
All that remains is just a feint of what was meant to be
Em C
This black page in history is not colourfast,
will stain the next
Am
And nothing seems in life,
G D
in dreams like what was meant to be
Em D Bm C
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
Am G
Made foundations quiver
Em D Bm C
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
Em
And I shiver...
