Introduction:
D# F#
Oh yes, I know this tension that you speak of
G# B D#
We're in the palm of a hand making a fist
D# F#
It'd be best for one of us to speak up
G# B D#
But we prefer to pretend it does not exist
C# B
And you can't see past the blood on my hands
Bb
To see that you've been aptly damned
D#
To fail and fail again
D# G#
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
C Bb
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
D# G#
And I know that I have been forgiven
C Bb
And I just hope you can forgive me too
D#
So don't you dare blame me for
Prying open the door
F#
That's unleashed the bitterness
That's here in the midst of this
G# B D#
Sometimes we live for no one but ourselves
And what we've been striving for
F#
Than bodies limp on the floor
Victims of falling short
G# B D#
We kiss goodbye the cheek of our true love
C# B
And you can't see past the blood on my hands
Bb
To see that you've been aptly damned
D#
To fail and fail again
D# G#
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
C Bb
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
D# G#
And I know that I have been forgiven
C Bb
And I just hope you can forgive me too
C# B
And you can't see past the blood on my hands
Bb
To see that you've been aptly damned
D#
To fail and fail again
D# G#
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
C Bb
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
D# G#
And I know that I have been forgiven
C Bb
And I just hope you can forgive me too
