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