[Verse 1]

Bb C2
I'm a junkyard full of false starts
D#2 Bb
And I don't need your permission
C2 D#2 Bb C2
To bury my love under this bare light bulb

[Bridge 1]

D# G C D#
The moon is a sickle cell
Bb C D
It'll kill you in time
D# G C D#
Your cold white brother riding your blood
D
Like spun glass in sore eyes

[Chorus 1]

G Bb C C/G D#
While the moon does its division you're buried below
Bb C2 D#2 Bb C2
And you're coming up roses everywhere you go
D#2 F
Red roses follow

Your cold white brother alive in your blood

It's coming up roses everywhere you go
