[Verse]
Dm C
The child without a name grew up to be the hand
Am Bb C
To watch you, to shield you or kill on demand
Dm C
The choice he'd made he could not comprehend
Am Bb C
His blood a grim secret they had to command
[Refrain]
Gm Dm Gm
He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life
A7
He prayed for both but was denied
[Chorus]
Dm Am C
So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed
Dm Am C
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?
Dm Am C
So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?
Gm A7
Will all our sins be justified?
[Verse]
Dm C
The curse of his powers tormented his life
Am Bb C
Obeying the crown was a sinister price
Dm C
His soul was tortured by love and by pain
Am Bb C
He surely would flee but the oath made him stay
[Refrain]
Gm Dm Gm
He's torn between his honor and the true love of his life
A7
He prayed for both but was denied
[Chorus]
Dm Am C
So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed
Dm Am C
Was it worth the ones we loved and had to leave behind?
Dm Am C
So many years have past, who are the noble and the wise?
Gm A7
Will all our sins be justified?
[Bridge]
Gm Dm C Gm
Please forgive me for the sorrow, for leaving you in fear
Am Gm
For the dreams we had to silence, that's all they'll ever be
Dm
Still I'll be the hand that serves you
Am G A7
Though you'll not see that it is me
[Chorus]
Dm Am C
So many dreams were broken and so much was sacrificed
