C#5    A5  B5 x2

        C#5    A5  B5
Welcome home 
      C#5    A5  B5
While away 
          C#5               A5     B5
They have tampered with the locks 
         E5             F#5
And your things they rearranged
    C#5     A5  B5
?We propose 
         C#5    A5  B5
a better way.? 
          C#5            A5       B5
Said they note they left behind 
         E5          F#5
In their wake of disarray 

            A5
You fell in place
           B5
Don?t fall asleep 
                C#5
They?ll find us here 
         B5           A5
I know a place to disappear 
              B5
As a voice proclaimed

        C#5        E5        A5
What we are is the sum of a thousand lies 
        C#5            E5          A5
What we know is almost nothing at all 
       C#5         E5             A5
But we are what we are until the day we die 
         B5                                A5
Or until we don?t have the strength to go on 
     B5                                A5
Til' we don't have the strength to go on

C#5    A5  B5 x2

       C#5    
Let us cry 
       C#5    
Let us be 
       C#5         
Let us open up our hearts 
        E5          F#5
Without fear of anything
      C#5
Faith alone 
          C#5
Is all we need 
      C#5
To traverse this burning bridge 
      E5                F#5
Now before it gets too late 

                A5
You said. ?it?s fine?
              B5
But the heart reveals 
            C#5
What smiles betray 
             B5             A5
Your sad sad eyes gave you away 
          B5
Don?t you know

        C#5        E5        A5
What we are is the sum of a thousand lies 
        C#5            E5          A5
What we know is almost nothing at all 
       C#5         E5             A5
But we are what we are until the day we die 
         B5                                A5
Or until we don?t have the strength to go on 
     B5                                A5
Til' we don't have the strength to go on

B5              C#5           A5
 Our shoulders bear an awful weight 
But still we trudge on just the same 
B5             C#5              A5
 These colors run then leave a stain 
They blacken our once honest name 
B5               C#5         A5
 But how can we argue, tell me 
Over the fury and the fire 
B5                     C#5           A5
How many times can we tell you that we 
                               B5   
Are not like you, we see right through 
                                 A5
Your poor disguise that fails to fool 
         B5                      A5
The wary eye that is trained on you

        C#5        E5        A5                   _
