Am C G
i was in my new house placing daydreams
Am C G
patching up the crack along the wall
Am C G
i pass it and lose track of what i'm saying
Am C G
'cause that's where i was when i got the call
Am C G
when the first stone's thrown,
they're screaming
Am C G
in the streets, there's a raging riot
Am C G
when it's burn the bitch,
they're shrieking
Am C G
when the truth comes out, it's quiet
Chorus
Em G D
so, they killed cassandra
first 'cause she feared the worst
Em G D
and tried to tell the town
Em G D
so, they filled my cell with snakes,
i regret to say
Em G D
do you believe me now?
Am C G
i was in my tower weaving nightmares
Am C G
twisting all my smiles into snarls
Am C G
they say, "what doesn't kill you makes you aware"
Am C G
what happens if it becomes who you are?
Chorus
Em G D
so, they killed cassandra
first 'cause she feared the worst
Em G D
and tried to tell the town
Em G D
so, they set my life in flames,
i regret to say
Em G D
do you believe me now?

F Am
they knew, they knew,
G
they knew the whole time
that i was onto something
F Am
the family, the pure greed,
G
the Christian chorus line
they all said nothing
F Am
blood's thick but nothing
G
like a payroll bet they never
spared a prayer for my soul
F A
you can mark my words that
G
i said it first in the morning warning,
no one heard
