Dm                               A# F/A F Gm
I hid the keys to unlock love's heart
Dm                          A#  F/A  Gm     F
To hold you in my sweetest pain and suffering
Dm                                  A# F/A F Gm
Everything's unfair in our lust and war
  Dm                        A# F/A D#
Redemption beyond right and wrong

Chorus:
        Gm
In our hearts
 F               Cm             D#
Love keeps sweet-talking to despair
     Gm
And goes on
      F            Cm Dm F
Sleepwalking past hope
        Gm           F
All is lost in this war
                Cm                D#
And all we can do is to wail and weep
                Gm
To the saddest song
      F            C
Sleepwalking past hope

I unlit the light to embrace the dark
To be near but not to turn into you, my darling
Forever, we're lost in our souls' storm
Reflections of each other's faults

Chorus

Dm     D#        F A#
I gave up long ago
Dm        D#                 F A#
Painting love with crimson flow
Dm          D#        F A#
Ran out of blood and hope
       Dm   D#     F  A#
So I paint you no more

    F/A   Cm
My hell begins from the 10th
       Dm
And descends to the circle
     D#                     A# F
Six hundred threescore and six
          Cm                     Dm
And from there, I crawl beneath Lucifer's claws
      D#           A# F
Just for one last kiss

Chorus

There's no hope
