Tom: Dm Am [Verse 1] E Am I hide, I hide in iodine words N.C. It's something inexplicable N.C. It's something unaccountable N.C. I cry I cry when anything hurts N.C. Vexatious, my amygdala N.C. That I can't do a thing about N.C. The tricks and trivials of N.C. Every twenty-four Em Maybe you could tone it down A little more Am And I, and I dunno Em Oh, all I ever knew before Am Were clusters of holes E Am [Chorus] N.C. An eye for an eye E Am That's how the game works N.C. I'm losing my autonomy N.C. A mutilated part of me N.C. And I defy the way the game works N.C. Between you and me N.C. It's only getting worse N.C. From the mouth Bm Of a cauterized rag doll Am Bm Am Supplications to leave him alone B From the mouth A#m Bm Of the cauterized rag doll Bm Throw the nails away A# And leave him alone G# [Verse 2] Am I don't know E Am Where the thoughts are coming from Am Pull my strings E Am And swallow ichor N.C. Fire burns E Am And the rags are torn apart E Am I can't inhale anymore A#m 'Cuz all I've ever known are holes F A#m F A#m F A#m F A#m Dm Am E Am E Am [Chorus] N.C. Today something changed N.C. I figured it's true N.C. The frontal lobe placed me N.C. Behind my own strings E Am 'Cuz I, defy, the way the game works N.C. I'll say it again N.C. I'm only getting worse N.C. The dull assumptions N.C. That I've tasted decency N.C. Waiting for the embers E Em To lose their glow E Am And I and I dunno E Am E Oh, all I've ever seen before Am Were clusters of holes N.C. Waiting for the world to burn N.C. Waiting for the holes to close now D Am Waiting for the world to burn Em Cm Waiting for the holes to close now Am E I can't see Am The holes in my memories E The fire and I, alone again Am A The guilt and I, alone again [Bridge] Am Em Am Say we take what had been torn apart E Am Say we mend any patchwork discord E Am Turning eyes to the Trypho-Puppeteer E Am I can't exhale any more N.C. So, one, two, three E Am And we'll tie the tourniquet E Am Pull my skin and swallow ichor N.C. Fire burns E And the rags are torn apart Am E Am I can't inhale anymore N.C. Day by day and day after day N.C. I'm causing trouble anyway N.C. Pull the fire alarm N.C. I never meant any harm E Am N.C. Never meant any harm E Am N.C. Well, say my limbs are torn apart N.C. And all the stuffing falls out N.C. Let the toy wind down N.C. It should've never been wound E Am [Chorus] N.C. I never meant any harm Am Dm E Say we take what had been torn apart Am E Am Say we mend any patchwork discord E Turning eyes to the Trypho-Puppeteer Am E Am Waiting for the world to burn A#m F So, one, two, three N.C. And we'll tie the tourniquet A#m F A#m Larvae eating away at everything F Word goes 'round A#m I'm the Trypho-Puppeteer F A#m Laugh along, I'm spreading holes N.C. Now I know F A#m This has always been my fault F A#m F A#m And I can't inhale anymore [Outro] F A#
