Now you can't escape you are buried in doubt
A
And it pulls you down

Now you're in too deep you may never get out

Such an aw - ful     place

Tear it down

It's almost too late, is the end coming now?
A
As you scream out loud
A
You sever the peace 'til your truth has been found
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am                         F/A
  Is there nothing left to follow?
Am                         F/A
  Is there nothing left to steal?
Am                         F/A

Knowing none of this is real

  All that real is we will never cease to be

Still I search this world in vain
