[G] [Am] [G] [Am]
[G] [Am] [G] [Am]
[D] I'm closer to the golden dawn, immersed [C] in Crowley's uniform [G] of imagery.
I'm
[C] living in a silent film, portraying Himmler's sacred [G] realm of dream reality.
I'm [Gm] [D#] frightened by the total goal, [F] drawing to the ragged hole, [G] and I [Em] ain't got the power [C] anymore.
No, I ain't got the power [G] anymore.
[Am] [A] [D] I'm the twisted name on Garbo's eyes, living proof of Churchill's [A] lies.
I'm destiny.
[D] I'm torn between the light and dark, where others see their target, [A] divine symmetry.
[F]
The dynastry vipers bite, [G] or Herod loud, the desert man.
[A] I'm sinking in [F#m] the [Em] quicksand [D] of my thoughts, and I ain't got the power [A] anymore.
Don't [E] believe in [F#m] yourself, [D#] don't deceive with [E] belief.
[A#m] Knowledge [E] comes with [Bm] death's release.
[A] [G#] [A] [F#m] [C#m]
[E] [D] I'm not a prophet or a stone-age man, just a mortal with potential of a superman.
[A] I'm living on, [D] and ever to the logic of homo sapien, can't take my eyes from the great
salvation [A] of bro-shit faith.
[F] If I don't explain what you ought to know, you [G] can tell me all about it on the next bar door.
[A] I'm sinking in [F#m] the [G] quicksand [D] of my thoughts, and I ain't got the power [A] anymore.
Don't [E] believe [C#] in [F#m] yourself, don't [Cm] deceive [F#] with [E] belief.
Knowledge [G] comes with [Bm] death's release.
