 You finally  find your helpless  mind,
 is trapped  inside your skin.
 You want  to leave, but you  believe
 you won't  get back again.
 You only  know, you have  to go but still  you can't get out.
 You try  and try, you die  and die. You're stopped  by your own doubt.
Reverberation,
 reverberation.
 You find  no peace, it doesn't  cease,
 it's deadly  irritation.
 It keeps  you blind, it's there  behind,
 your every  hesitation.
 It holds  your thought, your mind  is caught, your fixed  with fascination.
 You think  you'll die, within  the lie, it's backward  elevation!
Reverberation,
 reverberation.
 You see  reverberation,
is  your latest incarnation,
You  think it's  a sensation,
 Intro X2
 but it's just reverberation.
 You start  to swerve, the downward  curve,
 that catches  up your fears.
 Each thing  you do, comes home  to you,
 and pounds  inside your ears.
 Your start  to fight against  the night, that screams  inside your mind.
 When something  black it answers  back, and grabs  you from behind!
Reverberation,
 echoing through your brain.
 Reverberation,
 driving your mind insane.
 Reverberation,
 causing your blood to drain,
   X4
 leaving just charred remains. End

You f[Am]inally find your he[G]lpless mind,
is tr[Am]apped inside your s[C]kin.
You w[Am]ant to leave, but y[G]ou believe
you w[Am]on't get back ag[C]ain.
You [Am]only know, you h[C]ave to go but s[D]till you can't get [C]out.
You t[Am]ry and try, you d[C]ie and die. You're st[D]opped by your own d[Am]oubt.

[Am]Reverberation,
reverberation.

You f[Am]ind no peace, it do[G]esn't cease,
it's de[Am]adly irrit[C]ation.
It k[Am]eeps you blind, it's th[G]ere behind,
your e[Am]very hesit[C]ation.
It h[Am]olds your thought, your m[C]ind is caught, your f[D]ixed with fasci[C]nation.
You t[Am]hink you'll die, wit[C]hin the lie, it's b[D]ackward ele[Am]vation!

[Am]Reverberation,
reverberation.

You [Am]see r[D]everberation,
[Am]is your latest [D]incarnation,
[Am]You think it[D]'s a sensation,
[G]            [E7]                [Am]    Intro X2
but it's just reverberation.

You [Am]start to swerve, the do[G]wnward curve,
that c[Am]atches up your f[C]ears.
Each t[Am]hing you do, comes h[G]ome to you,
and p[Am]ounds inside your e[C]ars.
Your s[Am]tart to fight aga[C]inst the night, that scr[D]eams inside your m[C]ind.
When so[An]mething black it a[C]nswers back, and g[D]rabs you from be[Am]hind!

[Am]Reverberation,
echoing through your brain.
Reverberation,
driving your mind insane.
Reverberation,
causing your blood to drain,
                        [Am]   [G]   X4
leaving just charred remains.            End
