      A#m       C# Fm G#
I can hear you cry
       A#m      C#   Fm       G#       D#
From behind the door of your troubled mind
     A#m        C#     Fm G#
You locked yourself inside
  A#m     C#    Fm      G#    D#
A lonely prison of your own design

Do you feel the burn?
Does it ease the pain when you close your eyes?
Do you give in to your desire
Or live inside your tower of endless nights

Chorus:
        A#m     C#       Fm
I would burn it down for love
          A#m/C#     Fm  Fm/G#   D#sus4  D#
Watch the smoke pour out of   my broken heart
A#m     C#       Fm
Burn it down for love
           A#m/C#   Fm    Fm/G#     D#sus4 D#
There's no force on earth can  keep us    apart

Take my hand I'll lead the way
Through the darkest parts of these castle halls
No more masquerade
We'll fight ghosts and demons
And we'll breach these walls

I know you're still afraid
I'll guide you through these crumbling spires
Trust in me to light our way
With these glowing flames that only you inspire

Chorus

C#                   Fm
Pure of heart and innocent
            Cm               C#
I can hear your voice from afar
A#m                      Fm
I've had my share of loneliness
         D#                     C#
Can you hear me now, where you are?

Chorus
