Em Em
The blood is thick, thicker than my thoughts are quick
Em Am
Quicker than these thoughts turn sick, sick, sicker than my temperature rising,
Em B Am
Sicker than the whites of their eyes despising me and all my lovers that I cant disguise
Em
And I`ll never know why
Em
Ooh the air is clear, clearer that the taste of tears,
Em Am
clearer than me smell of fear and I`m fearful for a long cold year with you,
Em
Don't you know what you do?
B
You give me the horrors and I give you the goo that oozes
Am Em
Separate the scabs from the bruises
Bm(bend)
I turn my thoughts off and on, off and on, off and on...

Em
I`m out of breath, offers me a taste of death
Em Am
Equally the taste of life and I freeze to feel it,
Em
I prayed to my god and I prayed to yours Jesus, oh yes
B Am
I prayed and I pleaded that I`d never go back
Em
But i`m always goin' back
Em
coz the touch is sweet, sweeter than he touches me,
Em
Sweeter when that touch repeats, repeats,
Am Em
Please believe my heart spills its guts everytime that you leave.
Don't you know what you do?
B Am
You give me the horrors and I give you the goo that oozes
Em
Separate the scabs from the bruises
Am
Off and on, off and on, off and on...
