CEm
Cruel, cruel grounds 
CEm
Leak truths never found
FC 
Torturous ways 
FC
Whisper from the grave 
FCG
A slow spun song of distortion 

CEm
Bitter, bitter mouth 
CEm
Spitin' out seeds of doubt 
FC
Rituals seek root 
FC
Razed before they're told 
FCG
Stories break like branches in the cold 

AmEmAmEmG
Seasons trial finds man's mistakes fair game 

Am Em

CEm
Careless hand 
CEm
Lay and law of the land 
FC
Falls by the side 
FC
Silenced sentient cries
FC G
All within the lines of divine right 

AmEmAmEmG
Better bury the tracks in an unclosed case
 AmEmAmEmGAm
Weeds of discontent choke a broken ghost landscape 

F C
Cruel, heartless reign 
F C
Chasing short term gains 
F CG
Right down to the warning signs 


F C
Birds refuse to fly 
F C
No longer trust the sky 
F CG
Drifting out beyond the signals 

Even the horizon is gone 
Weather flees underground 
Future's left to wallow in fortune's waste
