A
Avoiding this is like avoiding a plague
A
We can't understand the advances we made
A
We've tried to resist but it's so hard to say no
A
We're pretending to see what the future will hold
A
We appear to be in control of our fate
A
Just like soldiers believe they're in control of a war
A
But its moving so fast we cannot see what we've done
A
We're losing our eyes just to say that we've won

A
My mind's made up, my heart is broke
G
My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked
D
I can't understand how we could ever believe
F                                      A
The things we asked for but never received

A (and so on like first verse)
We never understood the times we asked
The way we wasted all that passed
This neglect is final it's a stage we must
Endure to ever hope to see the first
My mind's made up about the things we did
We never said we believed, we couldn't say what we missed

A
My mind's made up, my heart is broke
G
My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked
D
I can't understand how we could ever believe
F
The things we asked for but never received

A (and so on like first verse)
By making noises which we cannot control
The things we hoped that we'd never forgo
We appear to be in control of our fate
Just like soldiers believe they're in control of a war
But it's moving so fast we cannot see what we've done
We're losing our eyes just to say that we've won

A                  G
My mind's made up, my heart is broke
D                            F
My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked
A                               G
I can't understand how we could ever believe
D                           F          
The things we asked for but never received
