[Refrain]
F#mBlinded by a fear of feeling, Ethese are the kings we chose
BmLost and looking for the meaningD, I've been searching high and low
F#mWhen we fade into nothing, wheEn we go up in the smoke
BmWe'll beg God for a mercy that HDe knows we'd never show
F#m  E  Bm  D
F#m  E  Bm  D
[Verse 1]
F#mOn a canvas we stained with blEood and painted with our sins
BmThere's a candle melting and it'Ds burning at both ends
F#mWe'll take and take till it caEves and drowns us in the wax it drips
BmLike a moth to the flame, you neDver should've fucking lit
[Pre-Chorus]
F#mYou can give sight to the blind
EBut you can't force them to see
BmYou could take us back in time
DBut it wouldn't change a thing
[Chorus]
F#mIf God came down from His kingdom, EHe came down from His home
BmAnd we asked Him if He'd take us back, DHe would surely tell us no
F#mIf God came down from His kingdom, EHe came down from his throne
BmAnd we asked Him if He'd take us back, DHe would tell us we can't go
[Verse 2]
F#mTo a rat in a maze, the end is Ewhere the start begins
BmBut if we made it out, I know thDat we would do it all again
F#mWe live and die in vain like tEreasure on a sinking ship
BmAll in the name of a God we'd juDst abandon and forget
[Chorus]
F#mIf God came down from His kingdom, EHe came down from His home
BmAnd we asked Him if He'd take us back, DHe would surely tell us no
F#mIf God came down from His kingdom, EHe came down from his throne
BmAnd we asked Him if He'd take us back, DHe would tell us we can't go
[Bridge]
F#mWe're dying every day
ETell me, is it all in vain?
BmIs it worth the suffering?
DIs it worth the price we paid?F#m  E  D  Bm  
F#mIs it worth it?E  
BmYeahD  
[Pre-Chorus]
F#mYou can give sight to the blind
EBut you can't force them to see
