INTRO :(Cont.)Next is the background orchestra sound with
guitars switching to distortion playing special effects
using natural harmonics.  Listen to the track for timing and
appropriate frets.

Now the music kicks in full gear and I have tabbed the
melody that coincides with the symphony sound. It repeats
throughout the song!

Back to the main Chorus using the same chords and ends with
natural harmonics!









Everybody's waiting for something to happen
Everybody's waiting for something to see
Lunatics waiting for bigger diadters
Everyone's waiting for news on TV

Winding lives at the end of the spiral
Waiting dictators with their next big thrill
Everyone's looking but no one is listening
Everybody wants to be in at the kill

I wait for the signs, they tell me true
I see the signs of the end of time

Everyone's searching but nothing's revealing
Everyone's looking for the reason why
Everyone's hoping for life everafter
Everyone's looking at death from the sky

Everyone's nightmares are going to happen
Everybody's ripping the mask from their eyes
Everyone's praying but no one's believing
Everyone's heroes tell everyone's lies

So I watch and I wait
And I pray for an awnser
An end to the strife and the world's misery
But the end never came
And we're digging the graves
And we're loading the guns for the kill

Can the end be at hand?
Is the face in the sand?
Future memory of our tragedy

Can the end be at hand?
Is the face in the sand?
Future memory of our tragedy
