C#m        A            E
Everybody loves a rose,
C#m                A                     E
But will you be thankful for the thorns?
C#m          A                   E
Love is easy when you're loved,
C#m                         A             E
But do you curse another when you're alone?

O---oh, I give my life to You
   E
so I can gain it back again
C#m A   E
O---oh, I stand solid
           F#m
while the paradigm is shifting

C#m     A               E
You say live and let live,
C#m            A         E
But people are dying everyday
            C#m               A            E
And you say what I don't know won't hurt me
                           C#m
But if what I do not know
           A             E
is the very thing I need,
then I say...

Humanity sees truth
                 E
through a shattered window pane
                    C#m
That blocks the view,
                    A
And plants the seed
               E                                C#m
So we draw the curtains to close but I say
                   A            E
That the sun can still shine

behind a closed mind
   C#m                       A
And sticks and stones do hurt
     E
When tossed from the tongue of mankind
