Prayer X

G#m       E          F#                B
I see the light as I spill the tears inside
               G#m
Glimmering and bright
    A#       D#m     D#
Day fades to night before my eyes
   G#m       E             F#                  B              G#m
If I have to go again just when I’ve found you sleeping at my side
   A#       D#m            D#
We live, we die, so what’s left to believe?


[Verse 1]
D#m                                                B             A#
  From the moment I could breathe I was screaming, crying to the night
        D#m                       F#
All the hands to hold me couldn’t keep me from knowing
B                A#
Life's a game we end up losing
D#m                                    B             A#
  Like a key, the knife stuck in me is locking up my heart
         D#m                            F#
And if I pull it out I’ll be bloodless, encompassed
    B              A#
And drowning in my tears I’ll fall apart


[Chorus 1]
G#m       E          F#                B
I see the light as I spill the tears inside
               G#m
Glimmering and bright
    A#       D#m     D#
Day fades to night before my eyes
   G#m       E             F#                  B              G#m
If I have to go again just when I’ve found you sleeping at my side
   A#       D#m            D#
We live, we die, so what’s left to believe?


[Verse 2]
D#m                                   B                 A#
  The smile that I hide behind’s been cracking all this time?
    D#m                         F#                   B
I remember little prayers I’d recite to keep myself alive
          A#
Were they all a lie?
D#m                             B                A#
  I’ve spent so long alone I’ve lost my sense of home
             D#m                                 F#
So I’ve been longing for the light that’s always missing from my life
              B                         A#
But don’t you know, what you want, will always have to go


[Chorus 2]
   G#m          E            F#             B
So if there’s a meaning, for all this suffering
                 G#m
Won’t you set me free?
  A#              D#m          D#
Before I break my knees, from all this praying
G#m            E               F#             B                  G#m
Days are still empty, and I’ve had my fill of all the tears I’ve cried
   A#       D#m            D#
We live, we die, so what’s left to believe?


[Chorus 3]
G#m       E          F#                B
I see the light as I spill the tears inside
               G#m
Glimmering and bright
    A#       D#m     D#
Day fades to night before my eyes
   G#m       E             F#                  B              G#m
If I have to go again just when I’ve found you sleeping at my side
   A#       D#m            D#
We live, we die, so what’s left to believe?
