D5     Bb5     C5  A5
D5
(VERSE)
D5
  Everything that isn't from my time and place
D5              C5
  Just fades away
D5
  And I know it's only my perception
       A5                         Bb5
That clouds the things I want to hear you say
D5
  All the years of desperation
D5                           C5
  like a child without the sense to dream
D5
  About a life of foolish pride
             A5
  How can I illustrate
   Bb5          D5
Annihilate it now
(CHORUS)
                      D5
This is everything I am
                             Bb5
But is it all you've ever grown to see inside
           C5            A5
a broken mirror for my pride
D5                             D5
  And there's an emptiness I feel
                              Bb5
And there's a silence to my dreams
These painful reveries
         C5             A5            D5
Still punctuate those tragedies I've seen
(VERSE)
D5
  Nobody promised that I'd be down
D5                       C5
  It's like the savage side we've found
D5
  Conventions we've agreed to follow
   A5               Bb5
Defined by safe obscurity
D5
  Applications balking at protest
D5                   C5
  We sequester and words divide
D5
  Would I resign if I broke your silence
      A5               Bb5
And trampled myself down inside
(CHORUS)
D5                      D5
  This is everything I am
                             Bb5
But is it all you've ever grown to see inside
           C5            A5
a broken mirror for my pride
D5                             D5
  And there's an emptiness I feel
                              Bb5
And there's a silence to my dreams
These painful reveries
         C5             A5            D5
Still punctuate those tragedies I've seen
D5
(POST-CHORUS)
F5                          G5
  And if I hold you in my dreams
                           D5
How will I recognize your face
          F5      G5    D5
And your silent discontent
F5     G5
(OUTRO)
F5                              G5
  And will my heroes find me there
                       D5
In another time and place
           F5       G5       D5
Will I regret the time we spent?
              F5       G5      D5
And all the symbols we've erased
         F5       G5     D5
Or the words we never traced

Hope you enjoyed this one!
