I am clinging to the

fabric of a life that's lost
Bbm Abm
the large unnecessary cost of death

Back and forth, a steady sway of

gone wrong

doesn't play a

thing at all

With sad, sad songs

C
The Ebb and flow the

smaller things the flight of the crow is

life and death still all that we know?

this night will soon be turned into day

A ring just fell from
Ebm
someone's cold and dying grip

the memories they start to slip, so soon

born into to a

brand new life

turn it over
A
The shackles that hold us down
F#m
are really there staked to the ground

shake them off and watch them disappear

Listen to this
Bm
energy and
D
feel not sad
