DHad a Adream that we were dead
but we preDtended that we still lived
With Ano regrets we never bled and 
we took eDverything life could give
And Acame up broken empty handed in the end
IDn the hearts of the blind
somFethinF#g you'Ell never find is a vision of light
WiDth tFhe voice of the dead, I'm screaming
AI don'Dt know who I am anymore
Not F#once in life have I been real 
but I Enever felt this close before
I've been Alooking in your window 
I've beeDn dressing in your clothes
I've beeF#n walking dead, watching you, 
long Eenough to know I can't go on.
DHad a dreAam that fire fell
from an opDening in the sky
SomeoAne warned me of this hell, 
and DI spit in his naive eye
And leAft him crying for my soul he said would die
IDn the hearts of the blind
somFethinF#g you'Ell never find is a vision of light
WiDth tFhe voice of the dead, I'm screaming
AI don'Dt know who I am anymore
Not F#once in life have I been real 
but I Enever felt this close before
I've been Alooking in your window 
I've beeDn dressing in your clothes
I've beeF#n walking dead, watching you, 
long Eenough to know I can't go on.
IDn the hearts of the blind
somFethinF#g you'Ell never find is a vision of light
WiDth tFhe voice of the dead, I'm screaming

intro -

D A

Had a dream that we were dead

but we pretended that we still lived

With no regrets we never bled and

we took everything life could give

And came up broken empty handed in the end

In the hearts of the blind

F F# E

something you'll never find is a vision of light

D F

With the voice of the dead, I'm screaming

A D

I don't know who I am anymore

Not once in life have I been real

but I never felt this close before

I've been looking in your window

I've been dressing in your clothes

I've been walking dead, watching you,

long enough to know I can't go on.

D A

Had a dream that fire fell

from an opening in the sky

Someone warned me of this hell,

and I spit in his naive eye

And left him crying for my soul he said would die

In the hearts of the blind

F F# E

something you'll never find is a vision of light

D F

With the voice of the dead, I'm screaming

A D

I don't know who I am anymore

Not once in life have I been real

but I never felt this close before

I've been looking in your window

I've been dressing in your clothes

I've been walking dead, watching you,

long enough to know I can't go on.

In the hearts of the blind

F F# E

something you'll never find is a vision of light

D F

With the voice of the dead, I'm screaming

A D

I don't know who I am anymore

Not once in life have I been real

but I never felt this close before

I've been looking in your window

I've been dressing in your clothes

I've been walking dead, watching you,

long enough to know I can't go on.

I've been looking in your window

I've been dressing in your clothes

I've been walking dead, watching you,

long enough to know I can't go on.
