G Em
Dark never came, and we spoke in the sand 'til we ran out of things to say.
C G
Oh no, when they served you on a plate;
Em
they were frowning and bowing their heads like birds of prey.
C G
Oh no, I was taking my time while the stars aligned,
You were holding my hand like a bottle,
Em C G
'til it tingled right down to the tips and then it shattered our bones!
C
Are you at peace when you're feeding the beast?
G
Wherever we go, in the darkness,
C
Solemn and content to die alone.
G
But other people, in the darkness,
C
cower in their beds and dine alone.
C
G
Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah, ooh ooh!
G
Nightly attacks; rip the meat from your back
Em
when we're sleeping warm and close.
C G
Oh no, and you're feeding it your ideas
even though it doesn't like the taste.
Em C
'Cause they burn, and it grows,
G
While you're waiting outside on your sister's roof
for the light to stream out of the garden,
Em C
I'll be lying face down in an empty pool
G
as the rain falls hot on the bottom.
F#m F Em D
And we're wasting our time, if you can't be kind,
C G
And I'll take the flashlight down to the basement, and it'll swallow me whole!
G
Oooo-oooo
C
Blood on your face, you were born for the chase,
G
Wherever we go, in the darkness,
C
Counting sins and taking things as signs,
G
Wherever we go, in the darkness,
C
Growing fins and breaking limbs in time,
G
Wherever we go, in the darkness,
C
Nothing's gonna ease your worried mind.
