Verse 1
Db
The
hour is out of joint
Black sun has risen
And the river of words
Is flowing on through
Ebm
The cages of tradition
Db
And they're handing out emptiness
We'll take it 'cause it's given
Free with this plastic innocence
Ebm
And these standards of living
Db
Verse 2
Questions lighted questions
Burnin' holes into my head
Hanging like shadows o'er the sun
Ebm
Staring out like the eyes of the dead
Db
And sometimes my soul flickers
When the wind of change blows cold
Over the mire of repetition
Ebm
Down the corridors of rigmarole
Verse 3
Ab
What I say, what I think
What I put down in ink

Db
I'm only trying to find a way to
B
Ebm
understand
Ab
And I mean no harm
Eb
I'm just searching for calm
Gb
In the storm of mankind
Db
Verse 4
Do you find it there
In the sea of faces
That drowns you everyday
Or in the silence and rubble
and empty spaces
Ebm
Where children and rottweilers play
Db
Is it buried in the praise
Given so cheap
With a meaningless
movement of the jaws
In the looking glass
That flatters you
Ebm
Or in the rattle of hollow applause
Verse 5
Ab
Blind circle, moon and sun body willing,
Gb
mind undone
E
One pain ending while an
Db
B

other begins
Ab
Lies, ruin disease
Eb
Into wounds like these
Gb
Let the truth sting
Db
Verse 6
B
From the hub to the limit
Db
Through the urban hollows
B
Db
Out into the poles of the extreme
B
To echo through the numbness
Db
Of these godless minutes
Eb
In the shadow of delusion's re
Ab
Gb
gime
Db
And here watching the night As it opens
Verse 7
Db
like a flower
And the day starts to rust
Feeling time pound
Like a silent hammer
Gb
On this empire of dust
Db
And I'm thinking bout the bullet
And the TV screen, the dollar,
and the clenched fist
And if we're searching for peace
How come we still believe
Ebm
In hatred as the catalyst
Verse 8
Ab
Oh through the borderline
Gb
In front and behind
E
One pain ending
Db
B
Ebm
While another begin
Ab
Lies, ruin disease
Eb
Into wounds like these
Gb
Let the truth sing
Db
Eb
Yeah
Gb
Let the truth
Verse 9
Db
And I feel it from the pit of my stomach
Into the ditch of my mind
Ebm
Db
Inside the chambers of my heart
Ebm
As I stare half blind
Db
At these walls of cardboard
Ebm
Db
At this space that I've rented
Ebm
Db
At your beauty that is crumbling
Ebm
Though you try so hard to prevent it
Verse 10
Ab
On and on

Body willing, mind undone

One pain ending while an

Lies, ruin, disease
