Intro
D#m F# C# G# 2x
[Verse 1]
D#m F# C# G#
grey on my face and spurs on my tongue and i could be anyone
D#m F# C# G#
large as a lion stalking his lover, small as the dying sun
A#m C# G# F#
don’t tell them what you would do in there
A#m C# G# F#
fist full of flowers and fire for hair
A#m C# G# F#
feet first, all fumbles, but he wouldn’t care
A#m C# G# F#
fake human face trapped inside his stare
A#m C# G# F#
when i’m in this body, put your pressure on me
A#m C# G# F#
when you’re getting closer, you’re getting further from me
[Chorus]
G# F#
but i’m the one who knows better
G# A#m
i’m the one who’s no better
G# F#
and she’ll always know better
G# D#m F#
and she’s always no better
C# G#
D#m F# C# G#
Oooooooooo
[Verse 2]
D#m F# C# G#
i could be best and i could be dust and i could be what you think
D#m F# C# G#
pinned to your collar, proof of your power, code for what you can’t see
A#m C# G# F#
don’t say it’s me when you know she’ll do
A#m C# G# F#
things I could dream up and you’ll dream too
A#m C# G# F#
all legs and all eyes, like any body moves
A#m C# G# F#
perfect in the right light, like anybody’s truth
A#m C# G# F#
when i’m thinking clear like the light behind the window
A#m C# G# F#
oh, i could see it peel off, and the voices become real
[Chorus]
G# F#
but i’m the one who knows better
G# A#m
i’m the one who’s no better
G# F#
and she’ll always know better
G# D#m F#
and she’s always no better
C# G#
D#m F# C# G#
Oooooooooo
D#m F# C# G#
Oooooooooo
