When you read this,
I will not be the same.
I have let my true form show, this is my last.
Lost in all my guilt, for letting you fall.
Understand it, wasn't me.
But I can't dream, without showing intentions.
As I ask, as I ask, as I ask these questions.
Where were you now I can't see, through your eyes.
I remember the day, the sun went out.
It halted all progression with all its beauty.
It just sacrificed, we fell apart.
Sincerely yours, I've disowned you.

they dont play a whole step down. they just play in in drop d. most hxc bands play in drop d except for a few that play in ::cgcfad:: or somethat play in standard like from autumn to ashes... but anyways most hxc bands including poison the well plays in drop D tuning.
