A#maj7 A#maj7 D5 D5/D# x2
[Verse]
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
This debilitating cynicism leaves me throwing fists
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Blindly, unkindly, I deliberately hide so that you can find me
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Unmentionable, the seeking of attention that we require
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
And I impede my own libido with a silent fear of fire
A#maj7
Hold me higher than your loved ones
D5 D5/D# A#maj7
Mask my bad intentions
D5 D5/D#
I wish I was as pure as my lustlessness suggested
[Chorus]
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Go fall, I'll hold you back
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Surround myself with your artifacts
A#maj7 D5 D5/D# A#maj7
My mind wanders with a sense of urgency
D5 D5/D#
I watch you fade away from me
[Verse 2]
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
I discreetly try to imbibe the origins of your resentment
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Above me, you reside as I strive for mere acceptance
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Escaping dignity, I ruined the pedestals I built
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
And bruised by your excuses, I characteristically wilt
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Condemned by a guilt that I can't abandon, I lessen to the floor
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
I've derobed you more times with my eyes than you have with your paws
[Chorus]
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Go fall, I'll hold you back
A#maj7 D5 D5/D#
Surround myself with your artifacts
A#maj7 D5 D5/D# A#maj7
My mind wanders with a sense of urgency
D5 D5/D#
I watch you fade away from me
