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