[Verse]
Dm
Life's breath in the candlelight
A
Lost hearts in the dead of night
F
It's a long way down
A7
To the place they found
Dm
Dark sun, hollowed by the fade
A7
Our debt they left to be paid
Dm
Seen the blackness stare
A7
Promising to spare
The chosen
[Chorus]
Dm A
Born of graves and left below
Dm
Painted ashes, painted snow
When the dark awakens
A7 Dm
Fires of our last hope are getting low
A
Souls of gods and souls of men
Dm
Meet in cinders to ascend
Fate has chosen
Gm A7
And our fading light is at its end

Dm A
I've a tale that time has lost
F
Sins of judgment born in frost
Then he took a name
A
For the one profaned
Dm A
Know the dark but let it rest
Dm
Left to lurkers in their quest
Let the watchers fight
Gsus2
And the blood ignite
A
The chosen
[Chorus]

Souls to revive us
Or rot us away
A#
Want for the weary
And death for the sane
C
Cursed yet we listen
For bells left to toll
A#M7
To fight back the depths of
A7
Humanity's soul
Dm
For the unkindled
We look to the sun
A#
Cities in gold
All the victories won
C
Fear not the dark
Or the monsters, my friend
A#M7
And brace for the feast
A7
Of humanity's end
