[Musical intro] [Baritone guitar and Bass] oooo oooo aaaa aaa aaa (desolation) [drum fill] [Verse 1] Walking through the empty streets tonight, Underneath the pale moonlight. Echoes of the life we used to know, Shadows of the love that couldn't grow. (oooo).... [drum fill] [verse 2] Once we had it all, or so it seemed, Living in a faded dream. Now the silence speaks so loud, Lost in a desolate crowd. (mmmm) [Pre-Chorus] All the colors fade to gray, In this place where love's betrayed.(oooo ooooo) Can't escape the memory, Of what we used to be.(aaaa aaaaaaa).... [drum fill] [Chorus] Desolation in my heart, Torn apart, where do I start? (aaa aaa aaa) In this wasteland, feeling small, Desolation, I feel it all. (ooooooo).... Desolation in my soul, Lost control, can't make it whole. (oo ooo ooo) In the ruins of our past, Desolation, will it last? (aaa aaaaa).... [Verse 3] Staring at the fragments of our time, (time time time) Every piece, a shattered rhyme. (aaaa aaaa) Thought we'd make it through the storm, Now I'm left here, so forlorn. (ooooo ooooo)... [musical interlude] [drop] [Pre-Chorus] [Fewer Instruments] All the colors fade to gray, (oooo oooo) In this place where love's betrayed. Can't escape the memory, (ooooo aaaa) Of what we used to be. (aaaa aaaaaa).... [Musical flourish] [Build up] [Chorus] Desolation in my heart, Torn apart, where do I start? In this wasteland, feeling small, Desolation, I feel it all. [drum fills] Desolation in my soul, Lost control, can't make it whole. In the ruins of our past, Desolation, will it last? (will it last)..... [Bridge] In the quiet, I hear your name, Through the sorrow, through the pain. (Aaaahh).... Searching for a light to see, But desolation's haunting me. (ooooo ooooo).... [drum fills] [Verse 4] One day I'll find the strength to rise, (oooooo).... From the ashes, to the skies. (ah aaaa) But for now, I'm standing still, (aaaaaaa)..... In desolation, lost at will. (oooooo)...... [drop] [Baritone guitar plays low notes of melody] [riser] [Outro] Desolation in my heart, (ooooo ooooo) Torn apart, where do I start? (aaaa aaaaaa) In this wasteland, - feeling small, (ooooo oooo) Desolation, - I feel it, All. (aaaaa eeaaaa).... [musical ending]
