[Verse 1]
D#m
I woke up in syncope, springtime when she came for me
B G#m C#
Frame of reference shifted and then I knew nothing
D#m
Now I live my life through her lens, spineless bokeh radiance
B G#m C#
Uninvited, unrequited, I know, I know
D#m
Craving you, the hour is late, field of view desaturate
B G#m A#m
Sunlight takes me from the shelf, not oppressed, oppress myself
D#m
Panic spreads out of the void, dark room in a Polaroid
B A#m C#
Think of nothing, think of nothing and breathe
[Chorus]
D#m C# F# B
I light the fuse and you tranquilize
B A#m G#m F#
Masking cues, apathetic highs
D#m C# F# B
Admit none of the fault, but take all of the prize
B F# C# D#m
Slipping back as the embers die
[Verse 2]
D#m
She knows what I'd do for her, riddles in the literature
B G#m A#m
Impostor syndrome hunting, cache the flow, I think I'm on to something
D#m
Tick-tick-tick so fucking slow, normalize when I feel low
B A#m C#
Digits tighten, armrest breaking down on my own again
[Chorus]
D#m C# F# B
I light the fuse and you tranquilize
B A#m G#m F#
Masking cues, apathetic highs
D#m C# F# B
Own none of the fault, but take all of the prize
B F# C# D#m
Slipping back as the embers die
G#m
The embers die,
F# Fdim G#m
Grow towards the light,
F# A#mm G#m
Grow towards the light,
F# C# B C#
Grow towards the light,
[Instrumental Bridge]
D#m C# F# B
B A#m G#m F#
D#m C# F# B
B F# C#
[Chorus]
D#m C# F# B
I light the fuse and you tranquilize
B A#m G#m F#
Masking cues, apathetic highs
D#m C# F# B
Own none of the fault, but take all of the prize
B F# C# D#m
Slipping back as the embers die
D#m C# F# B
Why do I trust you now when I know your mind?
B A#m G#m F#
Why do I mask my thoughts when I know I'm right?
D#m C# F# B
I'll take all the fault and grow and take all the prize
B A#m G#m F#
Why should I breathe in the ashes of your lies?
D#m C# F# B
Why do I run the risk when I know you're mine?
B A#m G#m F#
Why do I mask my thoughts when I know I'm right?
D#m C# F# B
Admit none of the fault, but take all of the prize
B F# C# D#m
Slipping back as the em..., as the embers die
