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