A D E A D
Heaven help a timid child in a trendy tide
A D E A D E D
He really doesn’t know that his heart’s being taken for a ride
A D E A D
Doing what the world lays down as a steadfast rule
A D E A E
And changing when the world says to change like a steadfast fool
(Chorus)
D A E A D E
Heaven, Heaven, help me, I’m one of the dominoes
D A E A D D/CE
Chain reaction coming, blow by blow
A D E A D
Heaven help a heedless man in a time of need
A D E A D ED
He can’t feel the knife in his back or see the blood that he bleeds
A D E A D ED
Walking 'round blind to the harm that’s being done
A D E A D E
He thinks it’s alright ‘cause it’s happening to everyone
(Guitar Interlude)
DADAEDADEADEA
(Chorus)
A D E A D
Heaven help a seeker of truth in an Age of Lies
A D E A D
Gonna make himself believe that the truth is whatever it buys
A D E A D
Gonna buy what the world says to buy in a monotone
A D E A E
Gonna cry when the whole world cries and the Truth is known
(Chorus repeat and fade)
