We Gnever meant to Abe this Dbad
We Gnever meant to Abe this Dsad
We Gnever meant to Abe a Glot of things that were Alurking in the Bmdark
I Emapplaud the facAade of Bmevery broken heart
Where Emdreams are just Ascreams from a Bmdeep undying dark
Or where sweet Embirds are the Awords of a Bmworld
BmThat hurled you down to the ground where you Gfound
AWhere you are Bmnow
Where you Gfound, Asolid Dground
(Same riff as intro)
GBuy me a Anew set of Dshoes
I'll Gwrite out a Anew set of Drules
I'll Gfeed you my Aheart and Gwe will see if we can Acure your Bmdisease
I Emapplaud the faAcade of Bmevery broken heart
Where Emdreams are just Ascreams from a Bmdeep undying dark
Or where sweet Embirds are the Awords of a Bmworld
BmThat hurled you down to the ground where you Gfound
AWhere you are Bmnow
Where you Gfound, Asolid Dground

DI'm an altruist with a selfish hand
But I know and I choose, am I something greater?
I need something harder in my veins 
My blood won't help me from privileged pains
