[Verse 1]
A#m Fm
Don't you know how hard this has to be?
G# D#
Just because I'm growing old don't mean I wasn't seen.
A#m Fm
2,040 days ago, just a horny dream,
G# D#
when your cousin died you told me of the dangling angels feet.
[Pre-Chorus]
C# G# C# G# D#
And mom and all the things you said and all the plans you made
C# G# C# G# D# D#
gonna be okay and you're the one to blame.
[Chorus]
A#m Fm A#m Fm
And at the dark goodbye where were signs of life
A#m Fm A#m Fm
like an empty wife with bedroom eyes.
[Verse 2]
A#m Fm
It must have been an exception to the alpha great I am
G# D#
'cause in the laundry room I saw my father's head down in his hands.
A#m Fm
F pool collecting drops that fell along his shimmered brow.
G# D#
He said: I said I'd never tell you, might as well just tell you now.
[Pre-Chorus]
C# G# C# G# D#
And he said: son, no matter what you do, how often it's done,
C# G# C# G# D# D#
I am the rock beneath that you see in the sun.
[Chorus]
A#m Fm A#m Fm
And at my dark divide are you on my side
A#m Fm A#m Fm Fm
like a tempted wife with an empty smile .
[Verse 3]
A#m Fm
And ask the great deceiver it never meant to follow fear,
G# D#
it is the moment that we meet, the king and finally find out
A#m Fm
what we're doing here. So, father do we go to heaven or to hell.
G# D#
Does fire and damnation start with an embryonic cell?
A#m Fm
F rope that we can never throw in long enough to actually grab
D# Fm
and if that is the case then is my premature kid in the well?
[Ending]
C# G# C# G# D#
Just forever looking up, wondering if we can come up
C# G# C# G# D#
with another plan? To save the eternal daMN -
C#
nation's going to [Outro] hell
[Outro]
