Bm A Dm F
..I was raised from a broken seed,
C G F#m E Bm
..I grew up to be an unwanted weed..
A Dm F
Ever faster the time exceeds me,
C G F#m E Bm
..Little harder again to remember you..
A Dm F C G
Held a torch for you when lightning struck me once again,
F#m E
Hope I died for the last time
Bm A Dm F
..Only one I have a thing greater than you,
C G F#m E Bm
..Little light on the sky every night..
A Dm F
Morning dew on the field where I met you,
C G F#m E
..I was frozen a year, couldn't get through..
Bm A Dm F
..Got a sign, not a scar, on my shoulder,
C G F#m E Bm
..I am not quite the man you take me for..
A Dm F
Fell in love with the weakness within me,
C G F#m E
..Tried to force me the ring and own me
Bm A Dm F
..Guess you found what you'd think would oblige me;
C G F#m E
..Little version of me to consume you..
C#m B E
..I'd give my everything to you,
F# C#m
Follow you through the garden of oblivion..
B E
If only I could tell you everything,
F#
The little things you'll never dare to ask me..
C#m
Do you really know me?
B
I might be a God..
E
Show me that you care and have a cry..
(E)
How do you see me (as the one)?
F# C#m
Can you see my blood when I'm bleeding?
(C#m)
How can you love this exile?
B E
And how could I desire you..
F# Gm
When my pain is my pain and yours is too?
Bb Dm F Gm
..On this deadwinter's night, darkness becomes this child..
Bb Dm F Bm
..Bless this night with a tear, for I have none I fear..

A Dm F
Seven lives of a man passed before me
C G F#m E Bm
..Seven graves; one for every love I've had..
A Dm F C
Only once I have broken my so called heart,
G F#m E Bm
Only one made me see why they cry..
A Dm F C
Will I learn how to be one of you someday?
G F#m E
Will I still feel the eyes that behold me?
Bm A Dm F
..Will I hear what you think when you see me?

I'd give my everything to you,

The little things you'll never dare to ask me..

I might be a God..

(Bb) G
Little broken.. Always been..
Dm G
A part of you belongs to me..
Bb Gm
You were never mine to love, but
Dm Csus4 C Gm Csus4 C Dm
This all has made it easy for me..
Bb G
Burning feathers; not an angel..
Dm G
Heaven's closed, Hell's sold out..
Bb Gm
So I walk on the earth, behind the curtains
Dm Csus4 C Gm Csus4 C Dm
Hidden from everyone, until I find a new life to ruin a - gain..
