Am C F E7
Please could you stay awhile to share my grief,
G E
For it's such a lovely day,
Am E
To have to always feel this way,
Am C F E7
& the time that I will suffer less,
G E Am ( E7 )
Is when I never have to wake
Am C
Wandering stars,
F E7
For whom it is reserved,
G E Am ( E7 )
The blackness of darkness, forever
(X2)
Am C F E7
Those who have seen the needles eye now tread,
G E Am E
Like a husk, from which all that was now has fled,
Am C F E7
& the masks, that the monsters wear,
G E Am
To feed, upon their prey
Am C
Wandering stars,
F E7
For whom it is reserved,
G E Am
The blackness of darkness, forever
(X2)
Am C
Doubled up inside,
F E7 G E Am E
Take awhile to share my grief,
Am C
Always doubled up inside,
F E7 G E Am ( E7 )
Taunted , cruel . . .
Am C
Wandering stars,
F E7
For whom it is reserved,
G E Am
The blackness of darkness, forever
(X2)
