Tell me how,
G F C
tell me how you make decisions
G F C
When every doubt
G F C
creeps like roaches in your kitchen,
G F C
And every sound,
G F C A#
it keens within an inch of what's allowed?
A# F
Safe in something comforting and deep,

an ancient terror grips you in your sleep.

Hold me closer,
Gm F D
pull me deep into your lungs.

Words of comfort ring in your ear.

I'm always feeling off this time of year...

You're at the table crying like you've got something to prove,

So I left the building, what was I supposed to do?

I covet your intention and you cower in my presence,

and I turn you on when the guests are gone, I love you to the letter of the law.

won't you sever every tie?
Gm Dm Fm C
And sing a lullaby,
Gm Dm Fm
Sing a lullaby?

And in my dreams you turn on me,

I'm always feeling off this time of year, my dear.
