[Verse]
Bm
Many moons I've lingered lonely
F#
Many dreams I've overseen
Bm
Now I wait for one below me
G F# Bm
To arise and intervene

From the churches and the chapels
F#
Came the ones we must pursue
Bm
And though I long to be unshackled
G F# Bm
I shall see my burden through
[Pre-chorus]

And can you hear the choir sing

For pale blood satellites

To watch the end of everything

On this longest night

[Verse]
Bm
From my final perch I ponder
F#
On the infinite and vast
Bm
In the blindness I still wander
G F# Bm
Though my time has almost passed
Bm
There are things I longed to teach you
F#
In my institutions' creeds
Bm
Lurking just behind the corners
G F# Bm
Of our own realities
[Pre-chorus]
Bm F# D G
And can you hear the choir sing
Em F#
Voices fill the spires
Bm F# D G
Hymns of want still echoing
C F#
Prayers on the lips of liars

The curse of the wise

To grant me sight to see the end
G
The more I behold
D
The further I fold

Into the madness I descend

And the cogs creak a melody

Hear the deafening dirges rise

And the ones who would never be

Behold the end with a thousand eyes
[Instrumental]

Paleblood will guide your way
Bm Em F# Bm
Look to the inside to break the seals
G
Bleed out the dark, decay
D F#
Ascend to places beyond the real

Paleblood will guide your way
Bm Em F# Bm
Look to the inside to break the seals
G
Bleed out the dark, decay
D F#
Ascend to places beyond the real
