Cruel, cruel grounds
C# Fm G#
Leak truths never found
F# C#
Torturous ways
F# C#
Whisper from the grave
F# C# G#
A# slow spun song of distortion
C# Fm G#
Bitter, bitter mouth
C# Fm G#
Spitin' out seeds of doubt
F# C#
Rituals seek root
F# C#
Razed before they're told
F# C# G#
Stories break like branches in the cold
A#m F# A#m Fm G#
Seasons trial finds man's mistakes fair game
A#m Fm
C# Fm G#
Careless hand
C# Fm G#
Lay and law of the land
F# C#
Falls by the side
F# C#
Silenced sentient cries
F# C# G#
All within the lines of divine right
A#m F# A#m Fm G#
Better bury the tracks in an unclosed case
A#m Fm
A#m Fm A#m Fm F#
Weeds of discontent choke a broken ghost landscape
C# F#
Cruel, heartless reign
C# F#
Chasing short term gains
C# G# F#
Right down to the warning signs
C# F#
Birds refuse to fly
C# F#
No longer trust the sky
C# G# F#
Drifting out beyond the signals
C# F#
Even the horizon is gone
C# F#
Weather flees underground
C# G# A#m Fm
Future's left to wallow in fortune's waste
