Em Am Am7
Into the dark I wait in confidence to bring irreverence
Em Am Am7
Upon a path awake from ignorance I'll raise the dead for this
Cm B Em Am
Blood in the water, salt in the soil
C Am D7 Am
Candlelight flickers while the wind speaks in whispers (you were delivered)
[Intermission]
Em A Em
Em A Em
[Verse 2]
Em Am Am7
A flock of sick decay and decadence, I need no evidence
Em Am
Pious pretenders parade, now blasphemous
Am7
They've earned what comes for them, I'll put an end to this
[Chorus]
C
Awaken o' spirit, surrender to me
Cm Gm
I hold your sigil, your candle, your key
D C Em
Let your bonds be released
C
Bring about sleep where belief's obsolete
Cm Gm
Please accept my offering
D C Em
Forge this path with me
[Bridge]
Em Am
What trouble troubles you, my beckoner?
Am
Do you need a reckoner?
Em Am
But all your wishes twist this listener
Am
You lie, Inquisitor, I'll put an end to this
[Chorus]
C
Sleep now o' child, surrender to me
Cm Gm
I hold your spirit and your heart's belief
D C Em
Has been well deceived
C
By misgivings made in the pit of your chest
Cm Gm
Judgments cast with the devious jest
D C Em
Finally, you will rest
