The Violence Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Dancing on [Am]the crumbling precipice
The rocks are coming
loose just at the edge
Are we [C]laughing? Are we crying?
Are we [Dm]drowning? Are we dead?
Or is it all [Am]a dream?

[Verse 2]
[Am]
The bombs are getting closer everyday
"That can never happen
here" we used to say
Have these [C]wars come to our doorstep?
Has this mo[Dm]ment finally come?
Or is it all [Am]a dream?

[Verse 3]
[Am]
Are we not [F]good enough?
Are we not [G]brave enough?
Is the vi[Am]olence in our nature
Just the [C]im age of our maker?
Are we not [F]good enough?
Are we not [G]brave enough?
To be[Am]come something greater
Than the vi[C]olence in our nature?
Are we not [F]good, good [G]enough
Or is it all a dream?
[Am]

[Verse 4]
To a predetermined fate
are we condemned
Or maybe we're a book
without an end
We're not [C]stories, we're not actors
We're [Dm]awake and in control
And this is not a dream
[Am]

[Verse 5]
So can we break this mold
And set in motion something new?
Forgetting [C]what we know
An evol[D]ution [Dm]overdue
Fight the cur[C]rent
Pull the ripcord
Get away
[Dm][D][Dm]

[Verse 6]
Are [C]we not [F]good enough?
Are we not [G]brave enough?
Is the vi[Am]olence in our nature
Just the [C]im age of our maker?
Are we not [F]good enough?
Are we not [G]brave enough?
To be[Am]come something greater
Than the vi[C]olence in our nature?
Are we not [F]good, good enough?

[Interlude 1]
[G][Am][A][Dm][A]
[Dm][D][Dm][A][Am][F][Am][F][Am][Dm][G]

[Verse 7]
Well trodden [G]paths are all we take
We need a storm, let's pray for [Am]rain now
To [F]wash these roads [G]away
Let's get off track and wander far
Same roads lead to same des[Am]tinations
Follow [F]nothing but [G]your heart
We're talking in our sleep
And sleeping through our [Am]lives
We dream of the [F]places
where we never [Am]die
We step from our [F]shadows an[C]d into [Dm]the
[Am]light
[Asus4][A][Asus4][A][Am]

[Verse 8]
Are we [F]not good enough?
Are we not [G]brave enough?
Is the vi[Am]olence in our nature
Just the [C]im age of our maker?
Are we not [F]good enough?
Are we not [G]brave enough?
To be[Am]come something greater
Than the vi[C]olence in our nature?
Are we not [F]good [G]enough?
Are we not [Am]brave [C]enough?
Are we not [F]good, good [G]enough?

[Outro 1]
Or was it all a dream?
[A][Am]
