G
I was Gborn to potential and limitless grace
with the flashing of light
it was gCone when the smAmoke cleared
Ccast in aAmsh and powder
I was rGaised to obey and respect but
at the edge of the lake
was dCead and disrAmuption
when the wCater splashed acAmross my back
it burGned
for the dead there's no comfort in fBate
and the line is faintly defiCned
and the purpose of living is liFfeG  
FI wasn't chosen, I didn't choose the path
my heart's not built to hold his love
REPEAT FOR THE REST OF THE SONG
I was schooled
in a place of tradition
but something was missing
in faces of classmates
eyes declared too blue, too deep
in the church will lead us to worship
fighting to pull it apart
with my nails
as they chewed solid unpaid misery???
from the bloods took the truth from the lies
and the lie they took greatly to god
when the lies after death is a prize
I wanna reach out
I wanna shake your hand
your war is noble and divine

Chords in this song · guitar

I was born to potential and limitless grace

with the flashing of light

C Am

it was gone when the smoke cleared

C Am

cast in ash and powder

I was raised to obey and respect but

at the edge of the lake

C Am

was dead and disruption

C Am

when the water splashed across my back

it burned

for the dead there's no comfort in fate

and the line is faintly defined

F G

and the purpose of living is life

I wasn't chosen, I didn't choose the path

my heart's not built to hold his love

REPEAT FOR THE REST OF THE SONG

I was schooled

in a place of tradition

but something was missing

in faces of classmates

eyes declared too blue, too deep

in the church will lead us to worship

fighting to pull it apart

with my nails

as they chewed solid unpaid misery???

from the bloods took the truth from the lies

and the lie they took greatly to god

when the lies after death is a prize

I wanna reach out

I wanna shake your hand

your war is noble and divine
