(Verse) 



D5 
  Everything that isn't from my time and place 
D5              C5 
  Just fades away 
D5 
  And I know it's only my perception 
       A5                         Bb5 
That clouds the things I want to hear you say 
D5 
  All the years of desperation 
D5                           C5 
  like a child without the sense to dream 
D5 
  About a life of foolish pride 
             A5 
  How can I illustrate 
   Bb5          D5 
Annihilate it now 



(Chorus) 



                      D5 
This is everything I am 
                             Bb5 
But is it all you've ever grown to see inside 
           C5            A5 
a broken mirror for my pride 
D5                             D5 
  And there's an emptiness I feel 
                              Bb5 
And there's a silence to my dreams 

These painful reveries 
         C5             A5            D5 
Still punctuate those tragedies I've seen 



(Verse) 



D5 
  Nobody promised that I'd be down 
D5                       C5 
  It's like the savage side we've found 
D5 
  Conventions we've agreed to follow 
   A5               Bb5 
Defined by safe obscurity 
D5 
  Applications balking at protest 
D5                   C5 
  We sequester and words divide 
D5 
  Would I resign if I broke your silence 
      A5               Bb5 
And trampled myself down inside 



(Chorus) 



D5                      D5 
  This is everything I am 
                             Bb5 
But is it all you've ever grown to see inside 
           C5            A5 
a broken mirror for my pride 
D5                             D5 
  And there's an emptiness I feel 
                              Bb5 
And there's a silence to my dreams 

These painful reveries 
         C5             A5            D5 
Still punctuate those tragedies I've seen 


D5 


(POST-Chorus) 



F5                          G5 
  And if I hold you in my dreams 
                           D5 
How will I recognize your face 
          F5      G5    D5 
And your silent discontent 

F5     G5 


(OUTRO) 



F5                              G5 
  And will my heroes find me there 
                       D5 
In another time and place 
           F5       G5       D5 
Will I regret the time we spent? 
              F5       G5      D5 
And all the symbols we've erased 
         F5       G5     D5 
Or the words we never traced 

D5
