It's empty in the valley of your heart
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind

The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat

Chorus:
F chordF C7 chordC7* F chordF
But I will hold on hope
F chordF C7 chordC7* F chordF
And I won't let you choke
Bb chordBb* F chordF C chordC
On the noose around your neck

Dm chordDm C7 chordC7* F chordF
And I'll find strength in pain
Dm chordDm C7 chordC7* F chordF
And I will change my ways

I'll know my name as it's called again
