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

I never asked if I could stay
G E
Switch the pressures you relieve
F E Am

I never wanted to believe
G F E Am
I never asked if I could stay
G E
Switch the pressures you relieve

Forge your aggression in the clay
