D F#m
Everyone's careful
D F#m
They're plotting their best escapes
D F#m G
For fear of this whole place burning down
Puzzles and pieces
D F#m
We're tangled in cages
D F#m
They rattle and shake their bones
D F#m
They grew from the earth
G
I watched them grow
They came up and grabbed me
Em A F#m
So stand in a world that seems to be built
G
On pillars and numbers
Em A F#m
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
G D F#m D F#m
Before we have learned to love ourselves
D F#m
Measures and objects
D F#m
They fall in our fuel of words
D F#m G
And we are whittled away by zeros, ones
Somebody save us!
D F#m
And nobody asks this
D F#m
Where does our heart live on?
D F#m G
In dreaming of dangers, dream of God
And maybe we've got it...
Em A F#m
So stand in a world that seems to be built
G
On pillars and numbers
Em A F#m
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
G
Before we have learned
Em A F#m
Just to stand, in a world that seems to be built
G
On pillars and numbers
Em A F#m
Or dance, with the hopes of falling in love
G
But how can we love...
D F#m
If we can't love ourselves?
D F#m D
Can't love ourselves....
