[Intro]
E G#m F# E F# G#m F#
[Verse 1]
E G#m B
I am an unhappy man
B G#m B
I was built with no purpose beyond just to satisfy
E G#m
The tireless thoughts of these curious minds
F#
But what went wrong
E D#m G#m
They sought to tear me apart
G#m B E D#m G#m B E
They tried to stop this mechanical heart of mine I was never enough to ever be loved in his eyes
[Pre-chorus]
G#m F#
Have you forgotten me
E
Did you erase what you've done
G#m
How could anyone
F# E B
Accept a broken son
E
[Chorus]
G#m
Hope rides alone
F# E F#
Hope rides alone
G#m F#
[Verse 2]
E
There's now another one like me
B G#m
Cradled in my father's arms
F# E
Like the golden boy he's built to be
E B
Someday, somehow, someway
G#m B
I will make them pay for all of his mistakes
What is life
G#m
What right has he have to decide
B
Am I so much of a failure in his mind
E
I am more than he could ever be
G#m B
I proudly wear his disgrace
[Pre-chorus]
G#m F#
Have you forgotten me
E
Did you erase what you've done
G#m
How could anyone
F# E
Accept a broken son
[Bridge]
G#m
Go on and abandon me
Erase every trace
F# E
Set fire to everything
G#m
How could anyone
F# E
Accept a broken son
G#m B G#m B E B E
B G#m B
Let the mad doctor rebuild me
G#m
There's no going back
B
Let him arm me to the teeth
F#
I bring hell with me
E
On broken wings
D#m F# E
On broken wings
G#m
Is there no joy to be found in this life
F# E
I no longer can call it mine
G#m
Is there no joy to be found in this life
F#
It's no longer mine
[Outro]
E
Hope rides alone
G#m
Hope rides alone
F# E B
Hope rides alone
F# G#m
Hope rides alone
