I like looking at the sky as the wind plays through
A#m G#
The skirts of the trees the silence knows how afraid we are of it
C# D#m A#m G# C#
Cherished memories bleed and bloom our secrets like seeds
D#m A#m G# C#
get swept up and carried through our neighborhood
F#
Safe as houses tuck me in
C# D#m G# A#m G#
Daylight waits for no man you’re still young
A#m
and breathing’s easy suck it in
C# D#m G#
what a waste this facade
C# G# A#m
What a pity we’ve come this far
A#m G#
A#m G#
The rain will fall and baptize our strongholds our sheltered lives
A#m G#
Closed blinds drawn curtains and vinyl floors can’t hide
C# D#m A#m G# C#
Stained memories bleed and bloom our secrets like weeds
D#m A#m G# C#
Creeps up to the roof of our neighborhood
C# F#
Safe as houses tuck me in
C# D#m G# A#m G#
Daylight waits for no man you’re still young
A#m
and breathing’s easy suck it in
C# D#m G#
What a waste this facade
C# G# F# A#m

What a pity we’ve come this far how luscious denial our devoured minds
A#m G# C#
Our thoughts remain impotent our pillows stay fertile
C# F#
Safe as houses tuck me in
C# D#m G# A#m G#
Daylight waits for no man you’re still young
A#m
and breathings easy suck it in
C# D#m G#
What a waste this facade
C# G# A#m
What a pity we’ve come this far
