INTRO | | (fuller) | | (6/4 time) | | verse 1 Like a pendant on the neck of a queen Ten thousand scars an embrace of the stone As we dance on a steady canopy Accuse me, fool me, take all my pain away, Pre-Chorus 1 my friend Singing my final song of honor Betrayed but still I never came around to open my mind I was torn by the storms in my head Like a victim of a fate Born to regret Still denied by the spi - rits of hell A call to repent Till the visions still stand in silence Like a shadow verse 2 Like a martyr that is nowhere to be seen Ten thousand stars I've prayed for "The Calm" As we drift on this never-ending sea Clear me, keep me, take all my pain away Pre-Chorus 2 my friend Singing my final song of glo - ry Betrayed but still I finally came around and opened my eyes I was torn by the storms in my head Like a victim of a fate Born to regret Still denied by the spi - rits of hell A call to repent Till the visions still stand in silence Like a shadow Like a shadow Torn by thorns in my head Like a victim of violence A call to repent Denied by the spirits of hea - ven Take me up again to the music of dawn I was torn by the storms in my head Like a victim of a fate Born to regret Still denied by the spi - rits of hell A call to repent Till the visions still stand Like a shadow
