E5              C5        C5  A5 A5  G5    F#5
The very brightest candle of all has been extinguished
     E5                      C5          C5      A5   A5 G5 F#5  
Smothered by those who could not bear to face reality


       E5            D5             C5           G5
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
      A5            E5
Made foundations quiver
       E5           D5              C5               G5
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
    F#5     E5
And I shiver...


     E5              C5            C5 
The leftover tallow just doesn?t contain
A5  A5  G5      F#5
All the right answers
E5                   C5    C5    A5   A5  G5   F#5
Under a sea of dust lies a vast wealth of wisdom


       E5            D5              C5           G5
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
       A5           E5  
Made foundations quiver
       E5           D5              C5               G5
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
    F#5   E5
And I shiver...

This black page in history is not colourfast,
      G5
Will stain the next
     F5               B5               Bb5          F#5
All that remains is just a feint of what was meant to be
      E5             D5              C5       
This black page in history is not colourfast,
       G5           
Will stain the next
     F5              B5
And nothing seems in life,
                Bb5             F#5
In dreams like what was meant to be


       E5            D5              C5           G5
Every beat of your heart tore the lies all apart
       A5           E5  
Made foundations quiver
       E5           D5              C5               G5
Every wave in the lake caused the porcelain to break
    F#5   E5
And I shiver...
