Tom: D
D A
The less and less I sing
F#m
As my skin begins to creep
A
For I recognize the truth
D
About the permanence of me
A
And we are paper-thin
F#m
We're tearing at the folds
A
You're living if you're warm
But I'm just feeling
[Chorus]
F#m A
Cold, but I'm not dead
D A
Carrying all these fears on wings of lead
F#m A
Coursed between the cracks
D A
Burn my bones to ivory black
[Verse 2]
D A
The less and less I sing
F#m
As my mouth begins to feed
A
On any ease I find
D
But nothing that I need
A
The moment I am sure
F#m
I am sure to second guess
A
I'll never learn to fly
D
If I never leave this nest
A
The moment I am sure
F#m
I am sure to second guess
A
I'm not looking for a home
D
I'm just looking for some rest
[Interlude]
F#m A D F#m A F#m A
[Bridge]
D A
And like a wooden frame
F#m
With silk-screen for a hide
D A
From my pores I recreate
F#m
The same old stupid lies
D A
And with my teeth and with my nails
F#m A D
I'll scratch off my designs
[Chorus]
F#m A
Cold, but I'm not dead
D A
Carrying all these fears on wings of lead
F#m A
Coursed between the cracks
D A
Burn my bones to ivory black
[Interlide]
D A F#m
oh oh oh x3
D A
oh oh
[Chorus]
F#m A
Cold, but I'm not dead
D A
Carrying all these fears on wings of lead
F#m A
Coursed between the cracks
D A
Burn my bones to ivory black
[Bridge]
D A
And like a wooden frame
F#m
With silk-screen for a hide
D A
From my pores I recreate
F#m
The same old stupid lies
D A
And with my teeth and with my nails
F#m A D
I'll scratch off my designs
