E
Gravity is not pulling me
 
I won't be a picture with no sound
 
Decaying, I'm praying
 
You are my air
A F#m
But I need the ground to kneel upon
A F#m
And love can't be your song
A E
I don't want to see you smile
 
E
I'm breaking it, taking it
 
I'm breaking slowly in my mind
 
I'm seeing it, freeing it
A F#m
I know love is in this soul of mine
A
It's not in your eyes
F#m
I don't want
A E
I don't want to see you smile
 
E
I started light-hearted
 
It won't be easy like you said
 
I'm going, flowing
 
I'm leaving on the day
A F#m
Of the dead I will live again
A
You will live again
F#m A
I don't want to see you smile
 
E
God knows it, knows me
 
Knows it, knows me
 
You sing, hear me, love
A
Say it again
F#m
Burnt out blind
A
The smoke machine
F#m
Is yours not mine
A E
I don't want to see you smile
