verse 1
E G
I fell from Heaven
E G
Head heavy with this message
E G
The flesh is your reference
E G E G E G E G E G
For knowing the soul
E G
When I was the leaven
E G
The yeast they steep the bread in
E G
What I said I meant as the sediment
E G
In bowls of swollen dough don't I know
Pre-Chorus
Am Em F C
Old as you are all you ever do is wander
Am Em F C
You'll come around someday soon you'll see
[Refrão]Chorus
Am Em
Apoptosis
F C
You're always ending
Am Em F C
Life in the body is an intention
Am Em F C
All that you know in the instance
Am Em F C
Is lost in the waves of existence
Bridge
Am Em F C
Lacerations sufficiently deep
Am Em F C
My body still wears a scar in the knee
Am Em F C
So when you live off every scrap of yourself
Am Em F C
Take solace in knowing as somebody else
Am Em F C
Though time will tear our bodies off
Am Em F C
The you that I knew will not be forgot
Am Em F C
No the you that I knew will not be lost
[Refrão]Chorus
Am Em
Apoptosis
F C
You're always ending
Am Em F C
Life in the body is an intention
Am Em F C
All that you know in the instance
Am Em F C
Is lost in the waves of existence
Am Em
You are a current
F C
You are a tide
Am Em
And of the contents
F C
The tenuousness of life
Am Em
All that you wait on
F C
All that you long for
Am Em
When you attain it
F C
You will be no more
