Verse 1:

   G#m           D#        E
This phalanx that we are with hearts up on our shields

    G#m
We are holding

      E  C#m
But not for long

G#m           D#      B
One by one we fall only here to rise again

       F#  E  G#m
In fields of armor we remain

   B  F#           E    B  D#
Our bodies twisted by the words we can't explain


Verse 2:

G#m                 D#       E
Bloody knuckles stain the walls and poison fills my lungs

    G#m            E   C#m
As the beauty of your voice cuts me down

  G#m                  D#       B
And though we weave in motion through the passing of our days

     F#
We are devotion

  E    G#m
We are the pain

  B  F#
We are beauty

   E    B  D#
That lost its way


Chorus 1:

G#m       E
Broken hearts we sing along to

  B       F# E
The hymns of our devotion

  G#m        E
We gave it all and we lost our minds

     B       F#
We don't need to be forgiven


Verse 3:

E B     F#       G#m
  It's like falling on our swords

E B     C#m    D#
  Just for taking a stand

E B     B     G#m
  It's the journey of love

E B      C#m     D#m G#m
  That we'll never understand


Bridge:

E             B
Beauty in our union like a fire in the void

  F#            G#m
Serenading the hopeless like passing of days

E              B
Through it all we knew we'd stand like the brave

   F#
No beginning No end

     G#m
With Like names old as days

We don't need to be forgiven
