The painful echoes of our past
My haunted memories
A castle never built to last
Is where I spend my dreams
And everywhere I want to hide
The walls come tumbling down
Delusions that I can't abide
So, in dark mist I drown
Until you [A7leave me
Relieving the bale
Transfixing my [A]soul
Free your heart from all [Em]the fears buried inside
And climb out of the sunless pit where you [A7were supposed to [C7]die
Ascend the weary steps towards the throne you [A7were denied
To claim your ɾighteous place upon [C7]the tears that they will cry
Like diving through a lightless sea
I am ascending to [C7]the ground
A new life, never meant to [C7]be
Unleashed from where it once was [Am7]bound
And every step I take, I think of how
I was [Am7]thrown in this nightmare's ɾealm
Contemplating how I could endow
Those who chained me in this hell
Until they leave me
Relieving the bale
Consuming my [A]soul
Free your heart from all [Em]the fears buried inside
And climb out of the sunless pit where you [A7were supposed to [C7]die
Ascend the weary steps towards the throne you [A7were denied
To claim your ɾighteous place upon [C7]the tears that they will cry
