[Verso 1]
D A
Amanda sings a shattered songbird back to life
Em
in the woods behind her father's house
G
she's 9 and wants to die
D A
so why become a butterfly?
Em
I search my brain for her last name
G
to see if she's alive
[Refrão]
D
you're an absurd light
A
all the world's a stage of grief
Em G
you reconcile, come together or obliterate
D A
Amanda I've forgotten your last name
Em G
forgive me, I apologize
[Verso 2]
D A
Amanda fights my bullies and in a loving sneer she says
Em
"Why don't you know how to fight?
G
It's the first thing I ever learned."
D A
I was only taught to yearn and wait around for providence
Em G
drinking every potion down that offered me a cure
[Refrão]
D
you're an absurd light
A
all the world's a stage of grief
Em G
you reconcile, come together or obliterate
D A
Amanda I've forgotten your last name
Em G
forgive me, I apologize
D A
I apologize
Em G
I apologize
