Verse: 

 C#m                A 
Here we are at the end of the road 

    E                   B 
a road that's quietly caving in (caving in) 

C#m                A   
come too far to pretend that we don't 

    E                     B 
we don't miss where we started  

 C#m                  A 
but looking back I see a setting sun 

      E                            B 
and watch my shadow fade into the floor 

C#m            A 
I am left standing on the edge 

     E                         B 
and wondering how we got this far 
(how we got this far)

the kids in the dark 

                E 
to burn our forever 

                   B 
or light up the spark 

             C#m 
we come together 

              A 
state of the art 

               E 
we'll never surrender   

                  B 
the kids in the dark 

so let the world sing 
  
C#m 
what a shame 

A 
what a shame 

  E                  B 
beautiful scars on critical veins

 C#m                A 
Here we are at the top of the hill 

    E                     B 
a hill that's quietly crumbling 

 C#m                      A         
been a while since you dressed for the kill 

     E                  B      
the kill that sent me tumbling 

 C#m                  A 
looking up I see a falling star 

     E                             B 
and watch its fire burn into the floor 

C#m  A 
and I am left standing on the edge 

E             B 
and wondering why we fall so hard 
(why we fall so hard)
