Em G Am G
verse 1
Em
I think I'm in despair, the wind is in the trees
G
Basically, just waiting for something to come along and eat me
Am
Is this future's gate, where my dreams retreat
G
And all my memories are just memories of memories?
Em
And a-folded in a dream, pitch-black and glowing blue
G
A raven saying, “I know a way that I can help you”
Am
Oh-oh, I stared into his eyes, I saw my pale last days
G
Said, “What you can't escape, you gotta embrace”
Em G
Ah-oh, I know a way to get back, this don't have to end
Am G
A way to get back, and haunt them, haunt them, haunt them

Then he wished me plain, as he flew away
G
Said I'd see him coming on that pale last day
Am
And he wished me plain, ordinary death
G
Said he'd be back after I escaped it
G
Oh, I've seen how they are, how they'd all sell their souls

In little bits and pieces, ‘til they get old

They don't make a dent, in indifference

We'll haunt them, haunt them, haunt them
