Verse
Cm A#
On a canvas we stained with blood and painted with our sins
Fm G#
There's a candle melting and it's burning at both ends
Cm A#
We'll take and take till it caves and drowns us in the wax it drips
Fm G#
Like a moth to the flame, you never should've fucking lit
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm
You can give sight to the blind
A#
But you can't force them to see
Fm
You could take us back in time
G#
But it wouldn't change a thing
[Chorus]
Cm A#
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home
Fm G#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no
Cm A#
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne
Fm G#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can't go
[Verse 2]
Cm A#
To a rat in a maze, the end is where the start begins
Fm G#
But if we made it out, I know that we would do it all again
Cm A#
We live and die in vain like treasure on a sinking ship
Fm G#
All in the name of a God we'd just abandon and forget
[Chorus]
Cm A#
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home
Fm G#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no
Cm A#
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne
Fm G#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can't go
[Bridge]
Cm
We're dying every day
A#
Tell me, is it all in vain?
Fm
Is it worth the suffering?
G# Cm A# G# Fm
Is it worth the price we paid?
Cm A#
Is it worth it?
Fm G#
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Cm
You can give sight to the blind
A#
But you can't force them to see
Fm
You could take us back in time
G#
But it wouldn't change a thing
[Chorus]
Cm A#
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home
Fm G#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no
Cm A#
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne
Fm G#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can't go
[Refrain]
Cm A#
Blinded by a fear of feeling, these are the kings we chose
Fm G#
Lost and looking for the meaning, I've been searching high and low
Cm A#
When we fade into nothing, when we go up in the smoke
Fm G#
We'll beg God for a mercy that He knows we'd never show
[Outro]
Cm
You can give sight to the blind
A#
But you can't force them to see
Fm
You could take us back in time
G#
But it wouldn't change a fucking thing
