Verse
Gm F
On a canvas we stained with blood and painted with our sins
Cm D#
There's a candle melting and it's burning at both ends
Gm F
We'll take and take till it caves and drowns us in the wax it drips
Cm D#
Like a moth to the flame, you never should've fucking lit
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm
You can give sight to the blind
F
But you can't force them to see
Cm
You could take us back in time
D#
But it wouldn't change a thing
[Chorus]
Gm F
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home
Cm D#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no
Gm F
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne
Cm D#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can't go
[Verse 2]
Gm F
To a rat in a maze, the end is where the start begins
Cm D#
But if we made it out, I know that we would do it all again
Gm F
We live and die in vain like treasure on a sinking ship
Cm D#
All in the name of a God we'd just abandon and forget
[Chorus]
Gm F
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home
Cm D#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no
Gm F
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne
Cm D#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can't go
[Bridge]
Gm
We're dying every day
F
Tell me, is it all in vain?
Cm
Is it worth the suffering?
D# Gm F D# Cm
Is it worth the price we paid?
Gm F
Is it worth it?
Cm D#
Yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Gm
You can give sight to the blind
F
But you can't force them to see
Cm
You could take us back in time
D#
But it wouldn't change a thing
[Chorus]
Gm F
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from His home
Cm D#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would surely tell us no
Gm F
If God came down from His kingdom, He came down from his throne
Cm D#
And we asked Him if He'd take us back, He would tell us we can't go
[Refrain]
Gm F
Blinded by a fear of feeling, these are the kings we chose
Cm D#
Lost and looking for the meaning, I've been searching high and low
Gm F
When we fade into nothing, when we go up in the smoke
Cm D#
We'll beg God for a mercy that He knows we'd never show
[Outro]
Gm
You can give sight to the blind
F
But you can't force them to see
Cm
You could take us back in time
D#
But it wouldn't change a fucking thing
