[Verse]
D#m
The flies in the dark with their ways
C#
Of shedding some light, now I've lost all my day
Fm
I think they are very lucky
C#
With internal parts like illumined sun rays
D#m
It's so easy to get
C#
Lost in the mixture
Fm
When forces strike hard
C#
You wear your layers or you'll shiver
D#m
I didn't think you were
C#
Struggling so long
Fm
With all of the wild things
C#
That we took so young
D#m
How it must have wrapped you up
C#
And left you hanging upside-down
Fm
When I was too busy getting lost in
C#
The big sound, the big sound
[Pre-Chorus]
D#m
Now I'd trade in all I'd saved
C#
To fly to those nights and ask, "How are you lover?"
D#m
If we could have just engaged
C#
I'd have enhanced my weakness in comforting others
D#m
But the words are all jumbled and faded
C#
My heart is a nurse, but my tongue's in the blender
D#m
Now it's become something creative
C#
I know it's not much, but just let it right into your gut
[Chorus]
Fm
And hold me, I've been sad for days
D#m
The light does change its gifts, every hour's devoured
Fm D#m
But the same things haunt me, what's haunting you?
Fm
Lately I've been seeing beings
D#m
They look like they float at the back of my headroom
Fm D#m
I don't find it strange when I'm talking to you
Fm
Lion in your dreams
D#m
The lion is good for your dreams, accept the lion
Fm D#m
The lion would probably try and come and embrace you too
Fm
And when I get fucked up, I'll do the best
D#m
To make myself not fucked up again, my heart and my lungs too
Fm D#m
Why can't I do the same for everyone I love too?
Fm D#m
How about it'll be you and me and the leader of the ghosts
Fm D#m
How about it'll be you and me and the leader of the ghosts
Fm
Lately I've been seeing beings
D#m
They look like they float at the back of my headroom
Fm D#m
I don't find it strange when I'm talking to you
Fm
Lion in your dreams
D#m
The lion is good for your dreams, accept the lion
Fm D#m
The lion would probably try and come and embrace you too
