[Verse 1]
[Dm]Once upon a time I was the scribe of all my dreams
[A#]I've seen the years turn into dust, now f[Gm]eel the rust i[C]n me
[Dm]I've walked the shores of Avalon, I've seen the seasons change
[A#]I've laughed and cried, I've lived and died, b[Gm]ut only on the p[C]age
[Bridge]
[A#]Now all I have, all I[Gm] am
All I ever was is [Dm]here, on the page
It's all the same, it never mattered an[A#]yway
It's all a lie so let it b[C]urn
[Chorus]
[Dm]All empty wo[A#]rds and al[Am]l rhymes will f[A#]ade
[Dm]As the light of [A#]last candle [F]flickers a[C]way
[Dm]If the story is [A#]over, this ch[F]apter my [C]last
[A#]Let it be my best one, l[Gm]et it be my [Dm]own
[Verse 2]
[Dm]I hope It's not too late to learn to live and learn to love
[A#]I yearn to fight, to turn the tide [Gm]before the tender [C]dark
[Dm]For I never drew the sword from stone, there's no Helen in my Troy
[A#]I stand alone, I stand forgotten, just [Gm]gazing into the [C]void
[Bridge]
[A#]Come night, test my w[Gm]ill, test my soul
Test my faith and test my h[Dm]eart, torn apart
Make me strong, make me wh[A#]ole again and
[A#]Guide through the dark 'til the [Gm]morning c[Dm]ome
[Chorus]
[Em]All empty[C] words an[Hm]d all rhymes w[C]ill fade
As the l[Em]ight of last [C]candl[G]e flick[D]ers away
If the s[Em]tory is over,[C] this[G] chapte[D]r my last
Let it [C]be my best one, [Am]let it be my[Em] own
