INTRO: A#m, G#, F#, F    2x
       C#, A#m           2x

VERSE:
C#                   
Fight the fight alone
A#m                   
When the world is full of victims
C#                   
Dims a fading light
       A#m                   
In our souls
C#                   
Leave the peace alone
A#m                   
How we all are slowly changing
C#                   
Dims a fading light
       A#m                   
In our Souls
 
                  
PRE-CHORUS:
   G#         F#           A#m
In my opinion seeing is to know
    G#               
the things we hold
    F#              A#m 
are always first to go
    G#               
and who�s to say
   F#            F    
we won�t end up alone
 
                  
CHORUS:
                    C#
On broken wings I�m falling
                G#/C   
and it won�t be long
                  A#m
The skin on me is burning
                    F#
By the fires of the sun
                     C#
On skinned knees I�m bleeding
                G#/C   
and it won�t be long
                      A#m
I�ve got to find that meaning
                   F#
I�ll search for so long

C#, A#m  2x 
                  
VERSE:
C#                   
Cry ourselves to sleep
A#m                   
We will sleep alone forever
C#                   
Will you lay me down
       A#m            
In the same place with all I love
C#                   
Mend the broken homes
A#m                   
Care for them
                   
they are our brothers
C#                           A#m
Save the fading light in our souls
                   
   G#         F#           A#m
In my opinion seeing is to know
G#                   
What you give
     F#           A#m   
will always carry you
    G#               
And who�s to say
   F#               F
we won�t survive it too
                   

CHORUS:
                    C#
On broken wings I�m falling
                G#/C   
and it won�t be long
                  A#m
The skin on me is burning
                    F#
By the fires of the sun
                     C#
On skinned knees I�m bleeding
                G#/C   
and it won�t be long
                      A#m
I�ve got to find that meaning
                   F#
I�ll search for so long   
                   

G#                   
Set a
     F#              
free all
A#m                   
Relying on their will
           G#         F#
to make me all that I am
                 A#m 
and all that I�ll be
G#                   
Set a
     F#              
free all
A#m                   
Will fall between the cracks
                  G#        F#
with memories of all that I am
                  F 
and all that I�ll be
                   

CHORUS:
                    C#
On broken wings I�m falling
                G#/C   
and it won�t be long
                  A#m
The skin on me is burning
                    F#
By the fires of the sun
                     C#
On skinned knees I�m bleeding
                G#/C   
and it won�t be long
                      A#m
I�ve got to find that meaning
                   F#
I�ll search for so long
