neon lights and slinking
G G7
purple skies squeeze out soft regrets from all our lives as
C Am
i greet another door that opens in
C D C
to that place that we repeatedly begin
G C G
I'm tangled up in tries
C D
slipping on "i wonder why"
C D G
i face affection, not embrace.
G
another urban wasteland thick with fears
G7
i see lights that shine like frozen television tears
C Am
or dying embers of another day
C D
please tell me what it is i, i wanna say
G C G
I'm tangled up in tries
C D
slipping on "i wonder why"
C D G
i face affectionate embrace.
