A court is in session, a verdict is in
C#m A
No appeal on the docket today

Just my own sin

The walls are cold and pale
E B
The cage made of steel
C#m A
Screams fill the room

My breath the only motion around
C#m A
Demons cluttering around
E B
My face showing no emotion
C#m A
Shackled by my sentence
E B
Expecting no return

Here there is no penance
E B
My skin begins to burn
[Refrão]
E B
(And I said oh) So I held my head up high
D
Hiding hate that burns inside
D C#m
Which only fuels their selfish pride
E

Out from the sun
D
A sun that shines on only some
D C#m
We the meek are all in one

E B
On that sad day of loss
C#m A
A lion roars in the darkness
E C#m
Only he holds the key
C#m A
A light to free me from my burden
E C#m
And grant me life eternally

On a Sunday morning

Banging my head

No time for mourning

Ain't got no time
