[Verse 1]
There's a Cvoice that pulls me stumGbling through a symAmphony
And the Fless of it I Cneed, the more I Gget
'Til I'm Cswept up by the shapeCsus2/B of all the cenAmturies
Like an Fecho in the Gchambers of my Cchest
I think she Cfears I'll be a serGvant to my hisAmtory
Or worse, a Fslave to someone Celse's misplaced Gdoubts
So I Ctry too hard to killCsus2/B what's out to killAm me
'Til I'm Fblind and hiding Gin the lion's Cmouth
[Chorus]
And the Fsus2words she aches to hear pour through my Ccanyon
And they're Fsus2singing in the caverns of myG limbs
And though I Cdo my best to Csus2/Btry to underAmstand them
They only Ffollow me like Gvultures in the Cend
[Pre-Verse]
C G Am F C G

[Verse 2]
I once Cread that I should writeG something worth readAming
Or I Fshould do something Cworth writing aGbout
And as my Cears they buzz like beesCsus2/B upon the ceiAmling
I start to Fpour a little Gmore than I'm alClowed
I said our Chearts know deeper seaGsons than our meAmmories
She said "this Fharvest might susCtain us for a Gyear"
And of Call the thousand waysCsus2/B the world could temptAm me
I've never Fmet a better Gfighter than her Cfear
[Chorus]
So as I Fsus2try to breathe the air that she is Cbreathing
And we Fsus2dance a lightless dance upon myG floor
I am Cburning to tell Csus2/Bher she's all i'm Amneeding
But i'm drowned Fout by all the Gnoise outside the Cdoor
[Verse 3]
CCarried by the curGrent of the morAmning
FMiles below the Csurface of the Gdawn
CThis is not the placeCsus2/B that I was bornAm in
But it doesn't Fmean it's not the Gplace where I beClong F C
