[Intro]
Am7
[Verse 1]
Am7 G Looking like some clear skies have finally opened up my eyes
Dm7 F/C Livin' in a lost time
G Dm7 The dawning of a brand new man
C Esus4 E So much blood on our hands
Dm7 King and queen of being lonely
G Dm7 Am7 Children of the empire see that we're all lost
G There comes a cost walking in the labyrinth without love
Dm7 F/C How much can you take?
G D And when are you gonna be okay?
C Esus4 E Gain control of what we made
Dm7 Instead of being afraid
G D F Children of the empire say
[Chorus]
C "We're long gone
E In that eternal flame
G Trying to break away
F C Dm7 From the mess we made
F Dm Am7 E7 F Oh, we don't have time anymore to be afraid"
[Verse 2]
Am7 G We tend to live long, that's why so many things Go wrong
Dm7 People selling their young blood
G D I guess that's the price you pay
C Em Fake desire, but no one lives, oh
Am7 Won't the fire burn our sin
G Before we get a chance to love again?
Dm7 G D Children understand that they pay for their sins
C Esus4 E Seize control of what they made
Dm7 Before we all fade away
G Dm7 Ab6 Children of the empire wanna change
[Chorus]
C 'Cause we're long gone
E In that eternal flame
G Trying to break away
F C Dm7 From the mess we made
F Dm7 Gm Ab6 Oh, we don't have time anymore to be afraid, anymore
