[Verse 1]
            Ab5 G5
I know your fear  of loss
C5            E5        Db5  C5
And your struggles with faith
           G5   Gb5                C5       Eb5     Db5 C5
And how it takes   everything that you have to face the day
       Ab5 G5              C5        E5  Db5 C5
The vir___tues you possess now bring eternal pain
        G5  Gb5                C5     Eb5       Db5 C5
All you have   is contempt for a life you can't ob_tain
         Ab5   G5
All your heroes  have failed you
C5          E5     Db5 C5
Yet you try and prevail
G5  Gb5             C5        Eb5      Db5  C5
Face   your torment and dismantle your doubt
  Ab5 G5         C5          E5    Db5 C5
Refuse  this legacy of shame and deceit
          G5 Gb5             C5        Eb5      Db5 C5
Cause the only real truth in your life that you know  is
   Db5 C5 Db5 C5
hosti_lity
