[Verse 1]
D
The tyranny of deterioration
F#m
Worries me that it's all just a waste of time
A E
Taking one step forward, two steps back
D
Still I believe there's a breath through the thorns
D
And I believe there's somewhere that's warm
F#m A E
And I believe that it's ever bright beyond this black
[Chorus]
F#m Bm
So keep holding on to hope without assurance
F#m Bm F#m
Holding on to a memory of light
A/C# Bm
But will the morning come? For all I know
A/C# Bm F#m
We'll never see the sun, but together we'll fight the long defeat
[Verse 2]
D

Suffering that I see all around
D
It's enough to keep me crashing down
F#m A E
Till I, I lay wrecked and reeling from these falls
D
Still I believe there's a word in the wire
D
And I believe there's a way through the fire
F#m A E
And I, believe, there's a joy that blooms beyond these walls
[Chorus]
F#m Bm
So keep holding on to hope without assurance
F#m Bm F#m
Holding on to a memory of light
A/C# Bm
But will the morning come? For all I know
A/C# Bm F#m
We'll never see the sun, but together we'll fight the long defeat
[Ending]
