Darkness Within Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Here in the darkness that I [Am]lay
Depression heavy in its weigh
And how my body aches to leave
To sing its final eulogy
My sons I love you evermore
And though the road beckons once more
I see the damage that I've done
In search for redemption
But I am just a broken man
Whose souls cries out to understand
How the madness shatters me
Upon the [F]stage on [Am]bended knee
I scream out loud at skies above
That answer mute bereft in love
I struggle not to fall from grace
Or sing the hymns of my disgrace
[F]We build

[Verse 2]
[Dm]cathredrals to
[Am]our [Dm]pain[Am]
Establish [C]monu[G]ments [C]to [F]attain
Freedom from all of [Am]the[Dm]
[F]scars [Am]and the [E]sins
Lest we drown in the [Am]darkness

[Verse 3]
within
[Am]
Mysterys forgotten chords
I strum in vain to please the lord
But he has never answered [F]me
[Am]My faith has waned eternally
In empty [F]men who [Am]pass along
The woes of all religions wrong
But now the shadowed veil it falls
Heed the clarion call
So pray [F]to [Am]music build a shrine
Listen in these desperate times
Fill your heart with [Dm]every note
[Am]Cherish [F]it a[Am]nd cast afloat
Be[F]cause [Am]god is in these
clef and tone
Salvation is found alone
Haunted by its [F]melody
[Am]Music it will set you free[Dm][Am]

[Verse 4]
Let it set you free
[F]We bui[Dm]ld cathredrals to
our [Am]pain
Establish [G]monuments to [F]attain
Freedom from [Dm]all of
the scars and [E]the sins
Lest we drown in the darkness [Am]within
