left-handed  

capo 3rd chord formations:

Am, A', Em', Em

left-handed,

these decisions that i've made have bound you

all my lies, like frantic flies, surround you

so relentlessly

this heresy, this ten-plus-three simplicity

duplicity is what it seems to be

but that's how these things go

I plant the seed and this lie grows

into a tree

with poison fruit that fills you instantly

with hate for fiends unknown

the image of the face you're shown

your enemy

your enmity's what keeps me on my throne

i'm all alone, unloved

i'm ostracized, despised, and snubbed

it's all for you

you people drain my life, you drain my blood

     CHORUS

    C', D', F#m7

     there's blood in the water

     there's blood on the sand

     there's hope for tomorrow

     but it's not what i planned

i'm branded

these decisions that i've made have bound you

despite your tries, war cries are all around you

this intensity

repentless glee, this senseless plea for sanity

your vanity is what it seems to be

but that's not my concern

for all these crimes it's time to burn

it's gravity.  depravity's still cheap but it's not free

and that's your cross to bear

the cost, you all must pay your share

it's laissez-faire 

a trap, perhaps you should be more aware

     CHORUS

    C', D', F#m7

     there's blood in the water

     there's blood on the sand

     there's hope for tomorrow

     but it's not what i planned
