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