G D Em
What is not but could be if
Em D G
what could appear in the morning mist
G D Em
with all associated risk
Em D G
what is not but could be if
What was not but could have been
was my obsession way back when
now I just remember this
what is not but could be if
D
what is not but could be if
C
we could be crossing
G
this abridged abyss into beginning
D
and failure's got you in its grasp
C
and you're reaching for your very last
G
vicious beginning
one has lived life carelessly
if he or she has failed to see
that the truth is not alive or dead
the truth is struggling to be said
so how do we get out of this?
family shadows all of this
through what is not but could be if
with all associated risk
what is not but could be if
we could be crossing
this abridged abyss into beginning
and failure's got you in its grasp
and you're reaching for your very last
vicious beginning
