[E]

[E]
[A]
[E] In the time of my [A] confession, [E] in the hour of my [A] deepest need,
[E] In the pool of tears [A] beneath my feet, [B] flood every newborn seed.
[E] There's a dying voice [A] within me, [E] reaching out [A] somewhere,
[E]
Toiling in [A] the danger and [B] in the morals of despair.
Don't have the inclination to [E] look back on any [B] mistake.
Like Cain I now behold this chain of [E] events that I [B] must break.
[A] In [E] the fury of the [A] moment I [E] can see the [A] master's hand,
[E] In every leaf that [A] trembles, [B] in every grain [E] of sand.
Oh, the flowers of [A] indulgence and [E] the weeds of [A] yesteryear,
[E] Like criminals they've [A] choked the breath [B] of conscience and good cheer.
And [E] the sun beat down [A] upon the steps [E] of time to light the [A] way,
[E] To ease the pain [A] of idleness and [B] the memory of decay.
I gaze into the doorway of [E]
temptation's angry [B] flame,
And every time I pass that way [E] I always hear my [B] name.
[A] [E] Then I'm well in [A] my journey, [E] I've come to [A] understand,
[E] That every hair is [A] numbered, like [B] every grain [E] of sand.
I've gone from wrecks to [A] riches, in [E] the sorrow of the [A] night,
In [E] the violence of [A] a summer's dream, in [B] the chill of a wintery light,
In [E] the bitter dance of [A] loneliness
[E] fading into [A] space,
In [E] the broken mirror [A] of innocence [B] on each forgotten face.
I hear the ancient footsteps, like [E] the motion of the [B] sea,
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other [E] times it's [B] only me.
[A]
I [E] am hanging in the [A] balance of [E] the reality of [A] man,
[E] Like every sparrow [A] falling, like [B] every grain [E] of sand.
