Bm A
Somewhere there's a choice being made
Bm A A/F# G
For the mass by the will of a broken few
F#m
Guided by the hand of the guilty
G A
Praised as a cure for a curse
Bm A
When really this is all catastrophic
Bm A A/F# G
And we're tethered to the hull of a sinking ship
F#m
Scratching for a breath at the surface
G A
Praying for the ropes to slip
[Chorus]
Bm A Bm
I always knew that the damned would inherit the earth
G F#m
As soon as they learned to speak
D Em
We would be suffering
Bm A Bm
Sucking on the scraps of a wicked wealth
G F#m D Em
We were bound by need to vicious villainy
[Post-Chorus]
Em7 Bm
Tear it down, start again
Em7 Bm
Erasing every trace so stale scars can mend
G
Then we will sing
Bm G
"The way things used to be"
Bm G
"The way things used to be"
Bm G
"The way things used to be"
[Bridge]
