[Verse]
Em G
There's three parts to love,
Am Em
Or so I believe.
Em G
There's a part of you you lose,
C D
And another you receive.
C G
Here I break with the concept,
Am Em
Though it's central to the piece,
Am C
Leave my mark on the canvas,
D Em
That only you can see.
Am
I deferred my happiness
C D
For loneliness and time,
Am
But once I'm where I wanna be,
C D
You'll be far behind.
[Chorus]
C G
All the lights in the sky
Am Em
Are falling to the ground,
C G
And the chains that pull me down,
D
Slacken off when you're around.
C Em
As the line begins to blur,
Bm C
It's comforting to know,
Am C
But I'll rip out all the hooks
D Em
From my skin so I can grow.
[Verse]
G
Sometimes I disagreed,
Am Em
Just to hear you scream,
Em
You were right
G C D
But I needed you to give emotion back to me.
C G
Here I break with the concept,
Am Em
Though it's central to the piece,
Am C
Leave my mark on the canvas,
D Em
That only you can see.
Am
I deferred my happiness
C D
For loneliness and time,
Am
But once I'm where I wanna be,
C D
I'm not leaving you, I'm not leaving you.
[Chorus]
C G
All the lights in the sky
Am Em
Are falling to the ground,
C G
And the chains that pull me down,
D
They pull me down, they slacken off when you're around.
C Em
As the line begins to blur,
Bm C
It's comforting to know,
Am C
But I'll rip out all the hooks
D Em
From my skin so I can grow.
[Outro]
Am C
Yeah I'll rip out all the hooks
D Em
From my skin so I can grow.
Am C
Yeah I will rip out all the love
D Em
From my skin so I can grow.
