She'll not try to buy you with her time

There's no place to hide, and I'm nothing but scared


Repeat Intro


E            C#m              A          B
You dream of colors that have never been made 
E           C#m             A          B            C
You imagine songs that have never been played (They will try)
C#m       G#     A                B
They will try to buy you and your mind
E            C#m          A            B
But only the curious have something to find
     A               B             C#m        F#m          A
It's foreign on this side, and the truth is a bitter friend
B                C#m  C#m/A#   A – B
Reasons few have I to go back again

                                                       C
Entrance is crucial and it's not without pain (There's no path)

                E   C#m                   A              B
