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