[Em]You blind yourself[D] s[C]o you don't have to see
[Em]You turn your lif[D]e [C]to a power above
[Em]You make yourself[D] a[C] hostage of love

[Em]Devote yoursel[D]f [C]to the power again
[Em]Distance yoursel[D]f fr[C]om all that we avowed
[Em]You broke those rul[D]es, [C]you’re my hostage now

[Em]          [D]     [C]
I [Am] [A] sinner
And I am a saint
[Em]          [D]    [C]
I [Am] [A] devil
I am the ghost at the wake
[Em]I feed the swe[D]ll and pu[C]ll
Of your tears as they break
[Em]I am the limit of[D]         [C]
The load you can take

[Em]You are the pulley[D]    [C]
And I am the winch
[Em]I am salvation[D]      [C]
And your herald of sin

Your limits of trust
[Em]Ransom yourself[D]      [C]

[Em]I've turned my ch[D]eek    [C]
And I've suffered the blow
[Em]The truth of my st[D]ory
Is [C]widely unknown
[Em]Words of der[D]ision I have [C]
Swallowed with a smile
[Em]For telling my st[D]ory
I have been [C]crucified

[Em]Now like a mad[D]man  [C]
I give my laurels to you
[Em]Like a he[D]ro     [C]
Forsake my trophies for you
[Em]Though a di[D]sciple of this d[C]evil
That is in our blood
[Em]Am I not a[D]lso      [C]
Your hostage of love?

Since [G]you slept ther[Bm]e in that liar's [Em]den, (D[D]en)    [C]

Until your i[C]nnoce[G]nce is ea[D]rned

And you[G] say you've got to l[Bm]ive al[Em]one
Though it [G]hurts, you'll make it [Bm]on your o[Em]wn, ([D]own)   [C]

You gave your in[C]noce[G]nce a[D]way
