 [VERSE ONE]
  C#m       A        Bsus4           G#m
 See the man who stands upon the hill
 A             F#m               G#sus4 G#
 He dreams of all the battles won
      C#m        A          Bsus4       G#m
 But fate had left its scars upon his face
    A           F#m              G#sus4 G#
 With all the damage they had done
 
 [PRE CHORUS]
          A          B
 And so tired with age
     G#m           C#m
 He turns the page
   B      A
 Let the flesh
                        G#sus4 G#
 Submit itself to gravity

 [CHORUS]
          A                     B 
 Let our bodies lay while our hearts will stay
          G#m                C#m         B
 Let our blood invade if I die in pain
       A                            B
 Now, if your convictions were a passing phase
            G#m                          C#m      B 
 May your ashes feed the river in the morning rays
   A 
 And as the vermin crawls
    F#m               G#         C#m
 We lay in the foundations of decay

 [VERSE TWO]
   C#m        A       Bsus4           G#m
 He was there, the day the towers fell
   A          F#m                G#sus4 G#
 And so he wandered down the road
    C#m         A         Bsus4          G#m
 And we would all build towers of our own
   A       F#m                G#sus4 G#
 Only to watch the roots corrode
 
 [PRE CHORUS]
            A       B
 But it's much too late
        G#m        C#m
 You're in the race
   B       A 
 So we'll press
                          G#sus4 G#
 And press 'til you can't take it anymore

 [CHORUS]
          A                     B 
 Let our bodies lay while our hearts we'll save
          G#m                C#m         B
 Let our blood invade if I die in pain
  A                              B
 And if, by his own hand, his spirit flies
          G#m                          C#m  B
 Take his body as a relic to be canonized, now
 A                         G#
 And so he gets to die a saint
                             C#m 
 But she will always be the whore

 [INSTRUMENTAL] 
 
  C#m
   .
  
 (You look stressed out!)
  C#m
 Against faith (Antihero)
  C#m
 Against all life (As if it must be pure)
  C#m
 Against change (Wander through the ruins)
 C#m
 We are free (The guiltiness is yours)

 [INSTRUMENTAL] 
 
  C#m B G#m C#m B

 [BRIDGE]
                       G#m C#m B A 
 You must fix your heart
            B           G#m               C#m B
 And you must build an altar where it rests
           A                    B
 When the storm decays and the sky it rains
          G#m                          C#m    B 
 Let it flood, let it flood, let it wash away
  A                               B
 And as you stumble through your last crusade
             G#m                            C#m         B
 Will you welcome your extinction in the morning rays?
   A                        G#
 And as the swarming calls, we lay in the foundations
 
 [OUTRO]
   C#m                        F#m  C#m
 Yes, it comforts me much more

 Yes, it comforts me much more

 To lay in the foundations of decay

 Get up, coward!
