Verse
F#m D/F# Cbm6/F#
Another wailing wall,
C#/F
A# slip, a fall,
F#m7/Fb G#7/D#
An emptiness that holds it all,
C# C#7/Cb
I know it blinded.
F# D/F# Cbm6/F#
A# star that travels into holes
C#/F F#m7/Fb
To get a sense of how it ends,
G#7/D# C#
It's better than to shine uncounted.
[Chorus 1]
Bdim7/C# Abdim7/C# C#
Is this my howling book?
Bdim7/C# Abdim7/C# C#m G#
Is this all that you took from me?
C7/G Fm A#m Fm/C C
I wrote it as a way
D#m7 F7/D# A#m C#7/G#
to say enough.
F#m C#m/G# G#
I wrote it as a door
Cbm6 C#7/Cb
To take you away,
Cbm6 C# C#7
So far away from me

[Verse 2]
F#m D/F# Cbm6/F#
Another page to turn,
C#/F
A# word, a space,
F#m7/Fb G#7/D#
So many feelings with a face,
C# C#7/Cb
I know it blinded.
F#m D/F# Cbm6/F#
Another soul you sold
C#/F
To try to feel,
F#m7/Fb G#7/D#
It's almost like you thought me real,
C#
And so I vanish
[Chorus 2]
Bdim7/C# Abdim7/C# C#
Is this my howling book?

Is this all that you took from me?

to say enough.
F#m C#m/G# G#
I wrote it as a door
Cbm6 C#7/Cb
To take you away,
Cbm6 C# C#7
So far away from me
