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

Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah, ooh ooh!

Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah, ooh ooh!

Ah ah, ah ah, ah ah, ooh oooooooh
