The things that I feel, they no longer seem real

I'm holding the line like a man out of time         Acoustic 2
  D                       Em
I need to get back to the light
The blood in these veins holds a lifetime of pain
  D                           Em                    Acoustic 2
I don't know which battles to fight.                  AD LIB

The eyes looking back at me don't recognize me

Take me down to the waters of Lethe

Wash my hands in the river
