[Verse 1]
 
G A  A#
Marauder
C#       G         F     E   D      C B
Staining the soil, midst of stillness
G       A          A#
Beloved fraternity to an end
C#    G   F     E   D   C B
Red eyes probe the scene
G   A   A#
All the same
C#      G       F      E D  C B
Stilted for the beholder
G   A  A#  C#      G
Depravity from the core
F    E      D       A#         A
Handcarved death in stoneladen aisles
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
Bm          C    G       A
I hide the scars from my past
Bm     C    G        A
Yet they sense my (mute) dirge
Bm       C      G         A
This is when it all falls apart
Bm      C       G         A
White hands grasping for straws
E
Sly smile, poisoned glare behind
E
Undisguised manmade nova
E
Mute cry, don't dare to tread
E
Searing beams tracking you down
C#      C    Bm            D# D A# Bm
Adoring what never has been
C#      C    Bm                            D# D A# Bm
Some will bring with them all they have seen
 
[Chorus 1]
 
Bm           Asus4     G      D  Em
Searching my way to perplexion
Bm               Asus4
The gleam of her eyes
        G
In that moment she knew
 
[Bridge]
 
Em         D        C      D
Thought I could not leave this place
Em
On this imminent day
Em         D       C      D
As I've reached the final dawn
Em
To what's gone astray
G               D    Esus2     Em
What would they care if I did stay
G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know
G               D    Esus2     Em
What would they care if I did stay
G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know
Em         D        C      D
Thought I could not leave this place
Em
On this imminent day
Em         D       C      D
As I've reached the final dawn
Em
To what's gone astray
G               D    Esus2     Em
What would they care if I did stay
G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know
G               D    Esus2     Em
What would they care if I did stay
G            D    Esus2 Em
No-one would know
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
 
Bm          C    G       A
Still brooding, soothing clam
Bm          C    G       A
That rigid, twisted face
Bm          C    G       A
Blank godhead, tear my name
Bm          C    G       A
Lost virtue, frantic lust
E
Sly smile, poisoned glare behind
E
Undisguised manmade nova
E
Mute cry, don't dare to tread
E
Searing beams tracking you down
C#      C    Bm            D# D A# Bm
Adoring what never has been
C#      C    Bm                            D# D A# Bm
Some will bring with them all they have seen
 
[Chorus 2]
 
Bm           Asus4     G      D  Em
Searching my way to perplexion
Bm           Asus4   G
In crumbling faith I saw her
Bm          Asus4       G         D  Em
Bearing her pain in the wilderness
Bm               Asus4
The gleam of her eyes
        F       Fm
In that moment she knew
 
[Outro]
