Verse 2:
Waiting for the train,
Labeled with a golden star
Heavy hearted boarding, whispers in the dark
Where are we going?
Is it very far?
Bitter cold terrain,
Echoes of a slamming door.
Chambers made for sleeping, forever.
Voices like thunder,
In a mighty war.
Cry out to the Lord...
Chorus

F# E D#m E F#
Time and time, time again.

And we drown in the wake of our power
A/G G/B...
Somebody tell me why
