I fell for the bait again
A fork in the road and one never ends

[Chorus 1]
Em G
We can almost hear the choir
C G
Echoing down streets on fire
C G C D
Singing, "Keep calm, restless world, this too shall pass."
Em G
Are we all failures in disguise?
C G
For the dream we brought to life,
C G
From behind our name in lights
C D
Our shadows cast
But will they last?

[Verse 2]
It's not that I don't believe
It's just that I'm so afraid to blee

If we could just stay on the mounting piles of debris

E|----------------------------------|----------------------------------|
When these lakes were only puddles
And these monsters were still men

E|----------------------------------|----------------------------------|
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Because we are but saddled horses
As they bet on every race

A|------------------3-------3-------|------------------3-------3-------|
E|--0-------3-----------------------|--0-------3-----------------------|
But there's contempt bred in the stallion
For the man that calls its name

And feet don't fail me now
There's a broken lonely town
