E A
there were moments of dreams i was offered to save
E A
i live less like a workhorse , more like a slave
C#m C#m/G#
i thought that one quick moment that was noble or brace
A
would be worth the most of my life .

so i pointed my fingers , and shout a few quotes i knew
as if something that’s written should be taken as true
but every path i have taken and conclusion i drew
would put truth back under the knife .

F#m B
and now the only piece of advice that continues to help :
C#m C#m/G# A
is anyone that’s making anything new only breaks something else .

E A E
when my time comes ,
A C#m C#m/G# A
ohhhhh , oh oh oh .
when my times comes ,
ohhhhh , oh oh oh .

so i took what i wanted and put it out of my reach
i wanted to pay for my successes with all my defeats ,
and if heaven was all that was promised to me
why don’t i pray for death?

and now it seems like the unraveling has started too soon ,
now i’m sleeping in hallways and i’m drinking perfume
and i’m speaking to mirrors and i’m howling at moons
while the worst and the worst that it gets .

oh you can judge all the world on the sparkle that you think it lacks .
yes you can stare into the abyss , but it’s staring right back .

when my time comes ,
ohhhhh , oh oh oh .
when my time comes ,
ohhhhh , oh oh oh .
