[Intro]
F
[Verse 1]
F
Watch me read you
The turning pages of an epic
Dissected hallucinogenic
Black coffee addict
F
Life, ended lies
Cold on that metal tray
Wasting away
I watch him sneer at me
F
From beyond the grave
I hear him call for me
[Verse 2]
F
Watch me read you
I get scared when it falls dark
The creeping shadows up my arm
The sneaking scarecrows
F
Work their charm
But circumstantial
The way I blink when you get mad
Feel disarmed when you get sad
F
But turn to run when we fall back
On old behaviors
[Verse 3]
F
When the flavor turns from sweet to sour
That’s the hour that I seek
The heavy hearts
And tired retreats
F
With words of hatred
Watch it seep through skin
Like sap through bark
I cower in the dark
F
Til your return
When will I learn?
[Chorus]
Bbm Ab
We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
Gb Ebm
Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
Bbm Ab
So make a promise but then later we can just forget
Gb Ebm
It’s hard to let your breath our when your used to holding it
Bbm
She’ll go (ohh)
Ab
Got out through the window (ohh)
Gb
It’s her (ohh)
Ebm
Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
Bbm Ab
You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
Gb Ebm
But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again
[Interlude]
F
“The beautiful colors of the people’s faces…”
“…and the way they sat on top of those necks”
[Verse 4]
F
Watch me read you
Like words ripped right off the page
Another ghost, another day
Of melancholy, UV rays
F
And heavy eyelids
You just decided not to care
Compressed your fears
And cut your hair
F
Lifted your shirt
To find there’s nothing there
[Verse 5]
F
Now read me:
Red wine, copper stained
With curly hair and crazy eyes
F
Impulsive mouth
She loves the rain
But not the dark
Am
You feel insane
F
The overpass is wet with blood
She turns to you to say
“Hey. We can’t exist”
[Verse 6]
Am
And in that moment, it’s just bliss
F
It’s like you’ve missed
A thousand years and as you kiss
It’s like you drift
F
Between here and there
Between real and fake
F
As I hold my breath I can’t see your face
Watch me read me,
Read you, read them, read us:
F
Everyone’s a burning book on
Trust and lust and love and what we are and what we’re made of
[Chorus]
Bbm Ab
We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
Gb Ebm
Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
Bbm Db
So make a promise but then later we can just forget
Gb Ebm
It’s hard to let your breath our when your used to holding it
Bbm
She’ll go (ohh)
Db
Got out through the window (ohh)
Gb
It’s her (ohh)
Ebm
Maybe it’s a shadow (ohh)
Bbm Db
You never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
Gb
But when you cry the light reflects and I see you again
[Bridge]
Gb
So don’t just see me
Ab
Oh surround me
Bbm Db
It’s getting harder, babe, to focus on just one thing
Gb
It’s enigmatic
Ab
Truly astounding
Bbm
The way we stand together
Gb
But we are still drifting
Gb
You are so absent
Ab
But you consume me
Bbm Db Gb
And when the sun goes down the night it wraps around me
You try to stand still
Ab
I can’t help moving
Bbm Db Gb
You’re like the moon that draws the tide that rushes through me
[Chorus]
Bbm Ab
We never wanted to be more than just a silhouette
Gb Ebm
Breathing the smoke from others mouths and lying in the dirt
Bbm Db
So make a promise but then later we can just forget

[Outro]
Bbm
I watch you read me
Db
The burning pages of my life
Gb
Reduced to ash and overnight
I find my body
Ebm
Is not mine
