[Verse 1]
D
Hollowed face stranger, just who might you be?
A E
In the mirror, someone's crying with the same eyes as me
D
I studied his face as he spat in the sink
A E
Watched the foam bed sizzle slightly, then observed it was pink
D
My weekly dinner of popcorn and Coke
A E
Every Friday, like communion that I took as a joke
D
The tally, the weekends, when time had no hands
A E
To count the passing of the day spent with no decisions or plans
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
D
Memories are slippery, but I've clung to one
A E
Like a shadow haunts the heartbeat of a man on the run
D
The thin polyfilm of an envelope pain
A E
There in the Devil's favorite typeface is my address and my name
D
Remaining balance, the largest sum yet
A E
Final notice printed boldly, I'm breathing fast and reading slowly
D
I recall the names from the badges they wore
A E
As they pointed me to follow a yellow line on the floor
D
That ends in the corner to watch the bag drain
A E
I taste the coldness as the poison drags the blood through my veins
D
Why am I programmed to feel like I do?
A E
Tell me, Master, am I broken and wasn't I built by you?
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
D
Silence is golden, but nothing quite roars
A E
Like a sunset reflected in those wild eyes of yours
D
That peek from the blanket and make my skin feel
A E
Like it's been dipped into something sacred while the gods held my heels
D
Wilder than the fires that burned on TV
A
The sound was muted, but I could hear it
E
I was the forest and I could feel it
D A
And each time you leave me, I say it's the last time I let you
E
Cause I'm certain that I'll repeat my past
[Outro]
G D
When my check gets delivered
A
And the law gets off my back
G D A
I can build us a place to call home
G D A
But until the hope in my soul is just mine
And that's something they say that I stole
G
Nothing feels certain
D A
Don't know if I'm hurting or healed
