1. DEvery niGght I sayA a prayDer, in the Bmhopes that Emthere's a Aheaven,
Dbut everyG day I'm Amore cDonfused as thBme saintsG turn intoA sinners.
All the Bmheroes and Dlegends I Bmknew as a Echild,
have fGallen to Didols of Aclay,
and I Dfeel thGis empty pAlace Dinside, so aGfraid that EmI've lost myA faith.
Show me the Dway, G show me the Dway ! G
Take me Dtonight to F#mthe river and Bmwash my Aillusions aEmway. A

2. And Das I slGowly Adrift to sDleep, for aBm moment Emdreams areA sacred,
I cDlose myG eyes and kAnow there’Ds peace inBm a world Gso filled wiAth hatred.
That I wakeBm up each moDrning and Bmturn on the Enews,
to fiGnd we’ve so fDar to go, A
andD I keep onG hopingA for a sDign, so aGfraid tEmhat I just won’t Aknow.
