Verse 1
D#m
A child in sweet duplicity
B
For innocence? Or slavery to nature
F# C#
And the bents that haunt him straight out of the womb?
D#m
He doesn’t have to learn the things unseemly that his instinct brings
B F# C#
To carry like a burden from the cradle to the tomb
B D#m
You’ll never have to teach him how to lie
B F# C#
If we are born in innocence, well, don’t you wonder why?
B D#m
For selfishness already dwells inside
B C# A#m
The birthright of Adam, the curse of the old man
Chorus
F#m
Day and night
D
Jekyll and Hyde in the fairytale
E (C#)
This is much more frightening
F#m
Darkness and light
D
Feed the new man and tear the veil
E
See the old man dying
F#m F#m F#m F#m
Verse 2
D#m
Behold the loving family man
Who tries to do the best he can
B F# C#
And loves his wife and children even more than his own life
D#m
But just like that, a wandering eye leads to a suffocating lie
B F# C#
And selfishness and deep betrayal cuts them like a knife
B D#m
If mankind doesn’t have a sinful drive
B F# C#
Then tell me why he’d wreck his life to get some on the side?
B D#m
The warring of two natures deep inside
B C# A#m
Starving the new keeps the old man alive
Chorus
F#m
Day and night

Feed the new man and tear the veil
E
See the old man dying

Soul sickness nailed to a cro-oss
