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