Verse
Are you listening
C#m Abm
We write a thousand pages they're torn and on the floor
E C#m
Headlights hammer the windows we're locked behind these doors
Abm
And we are never leaving this place is part of us
E C#m
And all these scenes repeating are cold to the touch
C#m
My hands seem to deceive me
Abm
When I'm nervous or when I'm healthy
E
The scenery's all drawn
C#m
They hang here from the walls dear
Abm
Painting pictures bleeding colors
E B Abm
Blanket the windows
C#m B Abm
Sometimes it gets so hard to breathe
C#m F# E
Your eyes can see right through me
Abm F#
These fights with your arms left beside
E
It's one thing and one more says goodnight
F#
You've got the map come get to me
Abm
These knuckles break before they bleed
F#
Tear out these veins that own my heart
E
This skin that wears your lasting marks
C#m
I've built these walls come get to me come get to me
C#m
Is this your lesson a slight discretion
Abm
The lines that keep you the lines that sweep you
E
Lock the doors from the inside
C#m
Your face is so contagious it wears announcements
Abm
It leaves me breathless I won't forget this
E B Abm
I won't forget
C#m B Abm
Sometimes it gets so hard to breathe
C#m F# E
Your eyes can see right through me
C#m
Let the walls have their say x
Have their say
C#m E
There's no conversation words without remorse
C#m E
And this television drowns the only source
C#m E
Wake from these dreams of you in my arms
C#m E C#m E C#m E
Go to the staircase where you hold my heart
