I like looking at the sky as the wind plays through
D#m C#
The skirts of the trees the silence knows how afraid we are of it
F# G#m D#m C# F#
Cherished memories bleed and bloom our secrets like seeds
G#m D#m C# F#
get swept up and carried through our neighborhood

Safe as houses tuck me in
F# G#m C# D#m C#
Daylight waits for no man you’re still young
D#m
and breathing’s easy suck it in
F# G#m C#
what a waste this facade
F# C# D#m
What a pity we’ve come this far

The rain will fall and baptize our strongholds our sheltered lives
D#m C#
Closed blinds drawn curtains and vinyl floors can’t hide
F# G#m D#m C# F#
Stained memories bleed and bloom our secrets like weeds
G#m D#m C# F#
Creeps up to the roof of our neighborhood
F# B
Safe as houses tuck me in

Daylight waits for no man you’re still young

What a pity we’ve come this far how luscious denial our devoured minds

Our thoughts remain impotent our pillows stay fertile

Safe as houses tuck me in

Daylight waits for no man you’re still young
