Verse 1
(D major) After the fire, after the rain
After the sacred kissed
the profane
When you came and left again
Such a captivating pain
After (G minor) that night I left my comfort
To find where your body lies
(D major) I'd wander upon this grave then fall
I'd fall (A major) in (B flat major) side
(A major) (B flat major) (A major)
(B flat major) (A major) (B flat major)
Verse 2
(A major) I searched the (D major) clearing for that spark
Hands sifted (A major) through the ash
(D major) Knowing what we felt was real
But some delusions never pass
So I took shelter in the woods
With the naked shaking trees
(B flat major) Deciduous, fraternal twins
We're both (D major) wilted, stem and leaf
(B flat major) Then the mist turned (D major) sleet into
snow
My senses shook numb,
I've nothing to show
But a rain - stained (B flat major) book
that once contained
My literary charades
(D major) New blots of ink,
ar (G minor) chetypal shapes and shades
Bleed through each and (D major) every (A major) page
(B flat major) And I ask myself
What's the weight of my life on
the scales of etern (A major) ity?
(B flat major) We inherit the earth,
we inherit the war (A major) (B flat major)
I inhabit the wound, I dwell in the harm
Oh (A major) how (B flat major) far we fall we're casualties of time
Oh (A major) how (B flat major) far we fall begin to
forgive exist (A major) ence
(B flat major) Retreat

Verse 3
back from reaching trees (A major)
When a frigid shadow climbs
inside of me (B flat major)
That specter of recompense (A major) (B flat major)
(A major) It's a sound I've heard ever since (B flat major)
Verse 4
Amidst the endless mortal (D major)
strife
And the constantly dying (B flat major) light
The truth we felt (G minor) from the (B flat major) start
(D major) How can I hold my (B flat major) self together
when everything (D major) falls apart? (A major) (B flat major)
Verse 5
We inherit the (B flat major) earth, we inherit the (A major) war (B flat major)
I inhabit the wound, I dwell in the (A major) harm
Oh how (B flat major) far we fall we're casualties of (A major) time
Oh how (B flat major) far we fall
forgive existence (A major)
Verse 6
I wandered upon the alter of human intervention
(B flat major)
An exhibition of erudition
Find (A major) me here, son of Man
How far we fall
