Through The Eyes Of Uriel

Am             Em  E   F           Gm   Am
On the edge of reason, beyond understanding
       Em         F       G
Silent she waits, perfect oblivion
A E F              G          A E F             G
    She’s crawling to the end,      perfect oblivion


[Interlude]

A E F G A E F


[Verse 1]

  Hm          Em
I live behind mirrors within a prison without any bars
             A    C      F  C F
Yet I remain lost to the world
   E
In hell I’m suspended within a prism
Cm Am  C    Dm     Am F
So-ooo many walls, so many years
Am     C                    F
Too often I’ve watched them die


[Chorus]

D                  Em                C
Images of yesterday feeling so far away
F        C                                  G     Em
   I can’t let go of the past, the years, the sweet romance
Am                                  Dm C
   I am a ticking time bomb waiting in a trance
           F    C                          Am
I need you more tonight than you will ever know
                                  Dm  C      Em
I swear to never forget this heartbreaking dance


[Verse 2]

Em
The hell of being trapped is simply not a match for death
A   Em C     F
Heaven  awaits
      Em
Now I know not to be afraid of the end
Am C     F  C
My love awaits, will you be there?
Am   C        F
Take me away     (I’m ready, I’ll be home soon)

[Chorus]

D                  Em                C
Images of yesterday feeling so far away
F        C                                  G     Em
   I can’t let go of the past, the years, the sweet romance
Am                                  Dm C
   I am a ticking time bomb waiting in a trance
           F    C                          Am
I need you more tonight than you will ever know
                                  Dm  C      Em
I swear to never forget this heartbreaking dance


[Verse 3]

Em                   Bb
Beautiful pure silence, come on! Embrace me
A
sweet perfect nothing swallow my fears, come on!
Bb                C
If I had just one wish
Am               Gm Am
Bababda  Bababda Baaaa
Am
I’d choke prophets, hang angels, burn children
Bb      A                                            Bb       C
oh, I’d drink oceans, eat the moon, flood the world, end everything
  A     E   F
breathe in, breathe out
   Am              Em F
we could run far away but then how would we sleep at night?
Am                Em          F
I’ve been looking for the words to say our last goodbyes
Am         Em                  F             Dm F
Hold on to fleeting hopes that I just might survive


[Outro] (Repeat 5x while fading out)
Am               Em C
Give in to the pleasure
     F
make it last forever
Am              F                C
Hold on hold on to everything we are
