Intro
D#5
D#5 D#maj7 D#5 D#maj7 x4
[Verse 1]
G# B F#
Under an eclipse of ever-rising feeling
G# B
Moving faster through my veins
F# G#
And bleeding out the sun
B F#
That's beating down our necks
G# B F# E
And burning my eyes
[Pre Chorus]
G# B F#
If this is a crutch for the weak
E D#
Then I am the least of these
G# B F#
So cut off my arms and break my legs
E D#
So I don't feel this anymore
G# B F# E D#
Choking on all of the feeling
G# B F# E D#
That I'm swallowing in
[Chorus]
G# G#m B F# E G#
Tasting the failure on my lips
G#m B F# E G#
That I've lead in
G#m B F# E G#
That I've lead in
G#m B F# E
That I've lead in
[Breakdown]
D# x4
D#
And this is my last chance for survival
D#
G# last ditch effort to cure my ache
[Verse 2]
G# G#m B
We're so vain aren't we?
F# E G#
We're so proud and empty
G#m B F# E G#
We're left leaning on our only intrigue
G#m B F# E G#
The lies that I've told they won't bury us whole
G#m B F# E
They won't find us in time
[Bridge Breakdown]
This is the end of the story that I can't forget

[Outro]
C# A C# E
This goes far be-yond our loyalties
C# A C# E
And we feign as a shield
C# A C# E
That's teeming with guilt and resonance
C# A C#
But we held our heads so high
