Em7 Em
[Verse 1]
Em G
Well, our souls are all mistaken in the same misguided way
D Em
We all end up forsaken, we're just choosing our own way
Em G
The future now incinerates before our very eyes
D Em
And leaves us with the emptiness of no more tries
Em G
Well, our visions of glory now have spiraled down the drain (whoa oh oh)
D Em
The best of our intentions now come crashing down in flames (whoa oh oh oh)
Em G D/F#
The depths of our despair we are unable to contain (whoa oh)
D
It's shallow living
[Chorus 1]
Em
The noose is falling
G
And all my friends are crawling
D
The noose is falling
Em
And enemies are rising
Em
A truth appalling
G
Our Maker comes a-calling
D
The noose is falling
Em
And enemies are rising
[Verse 2]
Em G
Well, the tracers from yesteryear are burning in the dust (whoa oh oh)
D C Em
Your bruises are reminders of naivety and trust (whoa oh oh)
Em G D/F#
You're only feeling stronger 'cause your body's getting numb (whoa oh)
G D
Now I lay you down, put the coins in your eyes and blow the candles out (whoa oh)
[Chorus 2]
Em
The noose is falling
G
And all my friends are crawling

The noose is falling

And enemies are rising

A truth appalling

Our Maker comes a-calling

And enemies are rising
