Intro
G C Bm Am
[Verse 1]
Am G
Sing for me, cause you don't have a chance.
Em G
All your little words and war stories advance.
Em G
Sell your skin, elements on trial,
C Em
Deliver your unconscious state of mind.
Bm Am
All my silent superstitions wrap around you like the coast.
G C
If I'm wide awake then why do I feel your ghost?
[Chorus]
G C
Oh the bitter sea of Brooklyn left me bare,
Bm Am
Still your heart it never conquered me like that.
G C
And the more my body tells me I'm entranced,
Bm Am
The deeper in your quicksand I'll descend.
[Verse 2]
Em G
Talk to me, only with your eyes.
C Em
Every bottled up decision intertwined.
Em G
Colors change faster than you can.
C Em
Still you bother to dilute the task at hand.
Bm Am
All my silent superstitions wrap around you like the coast.
G C
If I'm wide awake then why do I feel your ghost?
[Chorus]
G C
Oh the bitter sea of Brooklyn left me bare,
Bm Am
Still your heart it never conquered me like that.
G C
And the more my body tells me I'm entranced,
Bm Am
The deeper in your quicksand I'll descend.
Em G
All my enemies are thoughts I never left,
C G
And the sickness that I've felt is only surface.
Bm G
All the armor that I buried in my breath
C Bm Am G
I’ve spent it all.
C Bm Am
I’ve spent it all.
G C Bm Am
[Chorus]
G C
Oh the bitter sea of Brooklyn left me bare,
Bm Am
Still your heart it never conquered me like that.
G C
And the more my body tells me I'm entranced,
Bm Am G
The deeper in your quicksand I'll descend.
