[Verse 1]
[Am]A
[F][Am][F][Am]
[F][Am]
[F]
[Am]million points of light
Ascending to [F]the sky
[G]Monuments [Am]in darkness
Standing watch
Until the [F]sun will rise
Screaming [G]to [Am]an emptiness
Of how we once defined [F]ourselves
With our hands [Am]over our eyes
Claiming all of creation
[F][F#dim]

[Verse 2]
What in[Am]spires in
us this madness
That out existence should be defined
By a light [F]that can't
be seen by anyone
[Am]What inspires in us this madness
That out existence should be defined
By [F]a light that we can't see
By a light that can't be [Am]seen
[F#dim][D][Dm]

[Interlude 1]
[D][E][F]

[Verse 3]
A [F]mil[Am]lion [G]poi[Am]nts of light
Ascending [F]to the sky
Monu[G]ments [Am]in darkness
Standing watch
Until [F]the sun will rise
I [G]can't, I can't [Am]see
this all as progress
How did we come this far?
When we [F]see ourselves as deities
Claiming nature for [C]ourselves[G]
[Am]By our actions we betray
The instincts in our race
By our [F]blindness and stupidity
We kill everything

[Interlude 2]
We kill everything
[F][G][Am][F]
[Am]Can someone see

[Verse 4]
our self destruction?
Are we [F]reminding ourselves
That our existence is [Am]so delicate
That without this light we are [F#dim]no more[F]
That without this light we've made we are
[Dm]no m[D]ore[Dm]

[Interlude 3]
[D][Esus4][E][F]

[Verse 5]
A [F]mil[Am]lion points of light
Ascending [F]to the sky
[G]Monument[F] s [G]in da[Am]rkness
Standing watch
Until [F]the sun will rise
[G]We tor[Am]ch this earth until it bleeds
Rain ashes from the sky
Just [G]to [F]make a light that
no [C]one can see[G]
We [Am]cut this earth until it bleeds
Rain ashes from the sky
Just [F]to make a light that no one can see
Just [G]to make [Am]a light
Just to make a [F]light
We kill [C]everything[G][Am]
By our blindness and [F]stupidity
We [C]kill[Am][Am][F]
[G]eve[Am]rything

[Verse 6]
In a thousand years,
what will be our legacy?
[Am]A million lights that no one can see
A million points of light
