[Verse]
Em C
Serve or break the patterns that would be
D
Echo positions of the free
B C D B
Middle child of eternity
Em G C
Caught between the branches and the roots
D
Move in any way that suits
B C D B
The creeping vines of anomie
[Chorus]
C B Em
D C B Em
I never wanted to believe
D C B Em
I never asked if I could stay
D B
Switch the pressures you relieve
Em
Forge your aggression in the clay
A B Em G A Em D
[Verse]
Em C
The art that I buried in the earth
D
Sketching parallels to understand
B C D B
Why I can't share your love
Em C
Watchmen and makers in dissent
Em D
I’m only building what I meant
G B C D B
To do so many lives ago
[Chorus]
C B Em
D C B Em
I never wanted to believe
D C B Em
I never asked if I could stay
D B
Switch the pressures you relieve
Em
Forge your aggression in the clay

D C B Em
I never wanted to believe
D C B Em
I never asked if I could stay
D B
Switch the pressures you relieve
C B Em
D C B Em
I never wanted to believe
D C B Em
I never asked if I could stay
D B
Switch the pressures you relieve
G
Forge your aggression in the clay
