    Verse 1
    Close 
    your 
    eyes 
    to 
    the world 
    that 
    you 
    see 

    And 
    open 
    wide 
    to 
    the one 

    in 
    your 
    dream
    s 

    There's 
    nothing 
    left 
    that 

    you 
    wanna 
    believe 

    Foreign 
    eyes 
    have 
    been 

    torn 
    at 
    the 
    seam
    s 

    Verse 2
    You'd save 
    yourself 
    from 

    a world 
    without 
    sin 

    You're 
    born 
    again 
    with 
    a means 

    to 
    an 
    end 

    You're drawing 
    lines 
    in 

    the 
    palm 
    of your 
    hand 

    You're 
    holding 
    on 
    to 
    all 
    that 
    you've 
    planned 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 3
    There's 
    nothing 
    here 
    that 

    is 
    left 
    to 
    be 
    saved 

    Take 
    a bow 
    to 
    the 
    warrior 
    state 

    You 
    throw 
    yourself 
    to 
    the perilous 
    static 

    You shut 
    your 
    eyes 
    but 

    the 
    death 
    is 
    ro
    mantic 

    Verse 4
    You've sold 
    your soul 
    but 

    it's 
    only 
    a 
    fake 

    You'd kill 
    yourself 
    for 
    a 

    piece 
    of 
    the 
    take 

    You 
    lose 
    your 
    mind 
    in 
    a world 

    that 
    leaves 
    nothin? 

    You're 
    holding 
    on 
    for 
    asylum, 

    reach
    ing 
    for 
    air 

    Interlude 2



    Verse 5
    It's 
    all 
    you 
    want, 
    you 

    know 
    you'll 
    never 
    for
    get 

    Your 
    open 
    arms, 

    they 
    only 
    seem 
    to 
    sur
    render

    It's 
    all 
    you 
    know, 

    you 
    know 
    you'll 
    never 
    regret 

    Your 
    open 
    arms, 

    they 
    only 
    seem 
    to 
    sur
    render 
    all 
    that 
    mat
    ters 

    Interlude 3



    Verse 6
    No 
    one 
    needs 
    what 
    they 

    think 
    to 
    survive 

    You're pulled 
    inside 
    with 

    an 
    appetite 
    blind 

    You 
    feast 
    your 
    eyes 
    on 
    American 
    sex 

    You sleep 
    in shores 
    of 

    American 
    bliss 

    Verse 7
    Growing 
    wings 
    from 
    the sorrowless 
    excess 

    Your 
    frozen 
    eyes 
    cut 
    the chord 

    to 
    their 
    last 
    depth 

    You share 
    your 
    young 
    with 

    the wolves 
    of 
    a 
    na
    tion 

    There's 
    nothing 
    left 
    till 

    you 
    pray 
    for sal
    vation 

    Interlude 4



    Verse 8
    It's 
    all 
    you 
    want, 
    you 

    know 
    you'll 
    never 
    forget 

    Your 
    open 
    arms, 
    they 
    only 
    seem 
    to 
    sur

    render 
    all 
    that 
    matters 

    It's 
    all 
    you 
    know, 

    you 
    know 
    you'll 
    never 
    regret 

    Your 
    open 
    arms, 
    they 
    only 
    seem 
    to 
    sur
    render 
    all that 
    matters

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      "

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
