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

[Verse]
D#m A#
I've a tale that time has lost
F#
Sins of judgment born in frost
Then he took a name
A#
For the one profaned
D#m A#
Know the dark but let it rest
D#m
Left to lurkers in their quest
Let the watchers fight
G#sus2
And the blood ignite
A#
The chosen
[Chorus]

Born of graves and left below

Painted ashes, painted snow
When the dark awakens

Meet in cinders to ascend
Fate has chosen

[Bridge]
D#m
Souls to revive us
Or rot us away
B
Want for the weary
And death for the sane
C#
Cursed yet we listen
For bells left to toll
BM7
To fight back the depths of
A#7
Humanity's soul
D#m
For the unkindled
We look to the sun
B
Cities in gold
All the victories won
C#
Fear not the dark
Or the monsters, my friend
BM7
And brace for the feast
A#7
Of humanity's end

And our fading light is at its end
