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