           *Verse 1*
     AmCould it be tChe dream was meant to deceive?Em  
When everytFhing in me
     AmBought that happCiness would follow its leadEm  
If only I Fbelieved.
          *Bridge*
     AmAnd now the choice is Cmine to let it dieEm  
And hope Fthat I'll rise again
                    Am                               C                 Em   F(hold)
     Because reveries of flight only left me questioning.

     FThis was everyGthing I wantedAm  
And I can'Ct believe I'm giving it up
     FThis was everyGthing I waited forAm  
CBut this armor doesn't shine anymore.
     FAm I this sword that Gsees no war?Am  
Though broken Cmy blood is warm

     There's got to be something more, something more.
          *Verse 2*
     AmHeavy hands Cholding the burden of changeEm  
The only Fcost is pain
     AmThe return Cis never promised to gainEm  
It's time for the blind to Ffind their way.
         *Bridge*
     AmAnd now the choice is Cmine to let it dieEm  
And hope Fthat I'll rise again
