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