Pre-Chorus: 
 
Am               G 
I've lost all direction 
 
     Em             F 
I've lost all my direction 
 
    Am               G              Em 
And now I wish, that I would have believed 
 
              F 
Could have believed 
 
D 
Escape, escape 
 
  F 
Nature's indifferent hand 
 
D 
Retreat, retreat 
 
        F 
To the bliss of our creation 
 
 
 
 
         Am 
We were born and raised 
  
    G
To live beyond 
 
     Em                   F 
The heft and weight of a world undone 
 
Am           G 
Like a bird from the north 
 
    Em                  F 
Our hearts will roam in search of warmth 
 
 
 
Interlude: 
 
Am           G              F                
Uncountable numbers written in new fallen snow 
 
Am             G                  F 
I can hear the claws of the beast tapping at my window 
 
Am       G              F 
Nihilist sleeps and in dreams he sees god's face 
 
Am           G         F 
Realize even disbelief requires a leap of faith 
 
Am             G                    F          
From birth to death, we search for what's yet to be known 
 
Am           G                F 
We hope and pray and ask, but still are never shown
