lyrics

tempo 90bpm 4/4
Key of F# Major


F# D#m F# D#m F# B C#


F# D#m F#
he takes two it makes the lights go out,
D#m F#
a mis-sent melody goes dropping down,
B C# F#
we never were much for the prowl,
D#m F#
leave me sweating and unseen,
D#m F#
the pitch black, the madness and the meant-to-bes,
B C#
we'll hang lifeless in the daydream,
G#m B F#
and don't you wake me,


C#
don't trust your mouth,
B
that's not something you'd say,
D#m C#
and tomorrow you'll wake powder fresh and not afraid,
C# B D#m
no more talking blues, halogen lights,
C#
the stolen hand i caught between the cage and flight,



B C# D#m
and i hoped it would hurt so much more,
B C# D#m
and cut me down, with the broken and the bold,
B
but you better get to know,
C#
hold your breath and move real slow,
D#m
forget you name, but tell me,
G#m
if we're getting close,
B C# F#
and it hurts so much more.




F# D#m F#
he trades the tree for the splinter,
D#m F#
a bit of blood and bathe me in the words,
B C# F#
just take a full spin, and forget her,
D#m F#
and let me walk in place,
D#m F#
spare the me second hand, spare me the month of may,
B C#
did you hope i'd look the same?
G#m B F#
the memory fades,



C#
don't trust your mouth,
B
that's not something you'd say,
D#m C#
and tomorrow you'll wake powder fresh and not afraid,
C# B D#m
no more talking blues, halogen lights,
C#
the stolen hand i caught between the cage and flight,



B C# D#m
and i hoped it would hurt so much more,
B C# D#m
and cut me down, with the broken and the bold,
B
but you better get to know,
C#
hold your breath and move real slow,
D#m
forget you name, but tell me,
G#m
if we're getting close,
B C# F#
and it hurts so much more.
