Nothing to do nowG  
But pray for the enDd

I can't see the skyG  
Like I once did befoDre
All I feel is painEm  
Deep down in my coreC  
Oh God, forgive my sinGs
'Cause the devil's keeping sDcore

Knock knock, the reaper's at the door

IEm'm in a war
See a child
HuCgging his mother on the ground where she dies
And tGears fill up his eyes
He drops down to his knDees right there and cries
In a woEmrld filled with pain, filled with deCath, deed and airplanes
Why is loGve misunderstood?
Any kind of lDove really must be good

[Intro]

Em C G D

[Verse 1]

The sun goes down

The air feels cold

Here in the darkness

I make my home

Talking with silence

It's my only friend

Nothing to do now

But pray for the end

[Chorus]

'Cause I can't see the light

Anymore

I can't see the sky

Like I once did before

All I feel is pain

Deep down in my core

Oh God, forgive my sins

'Cause the devil's keeping score

N.C.

Knock knock, the reaper's at the door

Em C G D

[Verse 2]

I'm in a war

See a child

Hugging his mother on the ground where she dies

And tears fill up his eyes

He drops down to his knees right there and cries

Em C

In a world filled with pain, filled with death, deed and airplanes

Why is love misunderstood?

Any kind of love really must be good

[Chorus]

'Cause I can't see the light

Anymore

I can't see the sky

Like I once did before

All I feel is pain

Deep down in my core

Oh God, forgive my sins

'Cause the devil's keeping score

N.C.

Knock knock, the reaper's at the door

Em C G D

Knock knock, the reaper's at the door
