[Verse 1]
Dm
Young hearts beating
Am
In the middle of the night

Sounding like the thunder

Of some sacrificial rite
Dm
And the young hearts bleeding
Am
For the freedom of their youth

Struggle in the back seat

Find out the truth

Dm
Young hands reaching
Am
For the goal they can't attain
A# F
His blood begins to boil
C
When he thinks that it's in vain
Dm
And a young heart burdened
Am
With the weight of vanity
A# F
Summons all her strength
C
To save her purity
[Chorus 1]

And all it implies
A# C
We're seeing the dawn of
Dm
Yesterday's skies
