Said that if you spoke I would make it real
Just had to say that,
You just had to say that
Told me if I turned you would sneak and steal
Just had to say that
You just had to say that
You thought hard enough to make it wrong
You didn't believe me anyhow
You wouldn't believe me
You spent too little time and it took too long
You wouldn't believe me anyhow
You wouldn't believe me
Oh no!
(Wait for it
It's coming to you) x3
You don't have a route, it's the way you feel
Just had to say that
You just had to say that
Told me if I hurt I would learn to heal
Just had to say that
You just had to say that
If you went out too far I'd reel you in
You didn't believe me anyhow
You wouldn't believe me
If you would lock your jaw I'd pull the pin
You didn't believe me anyhow
You wouldn't believe me
Oh no!
(Wait for it
It's coming to you) x3

C#
Spines drip with fear -- two toned -- in a room. So alone. Oceans know when
A F#
Knives drop. Clicking across the floor. What did we have to die for?
<Driving: Chords>
My conscience glows on fire, Polaris in the night sky. Eye
for an eye, and every sharp slice arcs the shape from light.
<Softly: C#>
<Interlude: F# A Emaj7 Dmaj7 x4
Emaj7 Dmaj7
Gdim7>
<Stacatto>
C#
I've grown so accustomed to a life I was
A F#
Blaming on someone else for so long
I had to redirect and reprogram my own mind
Over time.
It only takes time to make a circle into a wave
<Ring: F#>
<Groove: C# Emaj7 Dmaj7> x8
<Softly: C# A F#>
Fear drips in tones. Two spines in a room so alone. Knives know when O-
-ceans drop. Sweeping across the floor. What did we die to have for?

My body changed shape last night
My left ear flew out the window and out of sight
And it heard things that I could not see:
The sting of a butterfly and float of the bee
Bm D / Bm D - E
Bm D / Bm D - E
Ooh! Sounds so sweet
Listening to the universe call
Ooh! Astounding to me
Lifting up just to promise a fall
And it was perfectly discrete like the surface of a street
Evaporated oil rising from the soil
Shaking hands with the crudest of kinds
Looking for a lot, with so little to find
<Chorus>
My body swayed last night
My left brain flew out the window and out of sight
And it knew things that could not be
Like the whisper of Venus and dream of the sea
<Chorus>
Sliding off down the curve
Forking off at the stream
Fighting for air between the thoughts
Sleeping to dream
Slide off down the curve
Fork off at the stream
Fight for air between the thoughts
Sleep to dream
