[Verse]
Bm F# D E
There's a bottomless pit that we've been climbing from
Bm F# D E
Just to get on level ground
Bm F# D E
Shake your seasick legs around
D E
Dead of winter in a logo town
Bm F# D E
Signs of life are soft and flickering
Bm F#
Need a bed to lay my body down
D E
Dead weight to carry down
Bm F# D E
Some static is lulling me to sleep
[Verse 2]
Bm F#
Hang your clothes on a chain link fence
D E
In a junkyard say amen
Bm F#
Your mouth is full of wordless hymns
Bm F# D E
And run-on sentences
Bm F# D
And they're helpless and forgetting in the background
E
Holding nothing
Bm F# D
And they're youthless and pretending with their bare hands
E
Holding nothing
[Verse 3]
Bm F# D E
There's a million horses dragging down a monolith
Bm F#
With these trademarks so bereaved
D E
Tied my leg to a barricade
Bm F#
With a plastic hand grenade
D E
They tried to turn emotion into noise
Bm F#
Need a teleprompter for my life
D E
Need a pipeline to the night
Bm F#
My body can't get no relief
D E
And this life it goes by fast
[Verse 4]
Bm F# D E
You're treading water in the past
Bm F# D E
Trying to re-animate something that you can't understand
Bm F# D E
And they're helpless and forgetting in the background saying nothing
Bm F# D E
And he's youthless and forgetting with his bare hands touching nothing
Bm F# D E
And he's helpless and forgetting in the background saying nothing
Bm F# D E
And he's youthless and pretending with his bare hands holding nothing
