Em Cmaj7 D6sus4 F#
Open my eyes and see my bleeding wounded hands
Em Cmaj7 D6sus4 F#
Feeling the pain too hard to stand. To stand...

Caught in the 'now and here' while they are on the way
Gm C5/G F
Hiding imagination, leading us astray...

Use your mind! You will leave the flesh dimensions behind
Gm F D#
Sanity can be the toll
A#/F F G
Leading to the core of your soul
[Chorus]

We are the kingdom of light and dreams

Where they hold our souls to take away the power
