[1st Verse]
G#5 D#
Felt a tremor stir beneath my breath
G#5 D#
That forecasts storms on the gallup poll
C# Fm D#
Woke up from the nightmare news
C# Fm D#
And hoping to read a sign in the morning air
G#5 D#
Nothing changes here and nothing improves
G#5 D#
All say my friends who just want out
C# Fm D#
And leave these troubles behind
C# Fm D#
Scatter like paper in the eye of the storm
C# Fm D#
Documented with a silent snow
C# Fm D#
That's only heard from far away
G#5 D#
C# Fm D# D#
[2nd Verse]
G#5 D#
More cards in play, follow in suit
G#5 D#
Everywhere you look, you only see red
C# Fm D#
Wonder when to call off the race
C# Fm D#
Watching a horse running down its last legs
C# Fm D#
Just when you think it couldn't get much worse
C# Fm D#
Watch the numbers rise on the death toll
C# Fm D#
And the chimes of freedom flash and fade
C# Fm D#
Only heard from far, far away

I hear you can't trust in your own
G# G# Cm D#
Now the grey is broken in the early morn
G# G# Cm D#
And the words forming barely have a voice
G# G# Cm D# G# G#
It's just your heart that's breaking without choice

Everything you've learned is distorted in your head
G# G# Cm D#
Bouncing off the walls, unraveling the thread
G# G# Cm D#
Staying up with the blue screen glow
G# G# Cm D# G# G#
Forgetting everything you ever dreamed years ago
Cm D# G# G#
Cm D# G# G#
Cm D# G# Cm D#
When the dread is flowing down my veins
G# Cm D#
I want to tear it all down and build it up again
G# Cm D# G#
Tear it all down, build it up again

Ring again
