F#m
Life's breath in the candlelight
C#
Lost hearts in the dead of night
A
It's a long way down
C#7
To the place they found
F#m
Dark sun, hollowed by the fade
C#7
Our debt they left to be paid
F#m
Seen the blackness stare
C#7
Promising to spare
The chosen
[Chorus]
F#m C#
Born of graves and left below
F#m
Painted ashes, painted snow
When the dark awakens
C#7 F#m
Fires of our last hope are getting low
C#
Souls of gods and souls of men
F#m
Meet in cinders to ascend
Fate has chosen
Bm C#7
And our fading light is at its end

[Verse]
F#m C#
I've a tale that time has lost
A
Sins of judgment born in frost
Then he took a name
C#
For the one profaned
F#m C#
Know the dark but let it rest
F#m
Left to lurkers in their quest
Let the watchers fight
Bsus2
And the blood ignite
C#
The chosen

[Bridge]
F#m
Souls to revive us
Or rot us away
D
Want for the weary
And death for the sane
E
Cursed yet we listen
For bells left to toll
DM7
To fight back the depths of
C#7
Humanity's soul
F#m
For the unkindled
We look to the sun
D
Cities in gold
All the victories won
E
Fear not the dark
Or the monsters, my friend
DM7
And brace for the feast
C#7
Of humanity's end
