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