Verse:
D5
Touch my mouth and hold my tongue

I?ll never be your chosen one
            Bb5                                D5
I?ll be home, safe and tucked away
           Bb5                                          D5
You can?t tempt me if I don?t see the day


D5
The pull on my flesh was just too strong

It stifles the choice and the air in my lungs
           Bb5                                              D5
better not to breathe than to breathe a lie
                      Bb5                                    D5
'cause when I open my body I breathe a lie

D5     C5      Bb5  A5   C5  F5  G5 C5  D5

( D5 pedal in bass)

             Bb5 D5 C5 D5 C5 D5
I will not speak of your sin
there was a way out for him
the mirror shows not
your values are all shot

       D5 C5   D5  C5     D5       F5             Bb5
But oh, my heart was flawed I knew my weakness
     D5 C5    D5  C5  D5        F5          Bb5
So hold my hand, consign me not to darkness.

D5      C5      Bb5  A5   C5  F5  G5 C5  D5

Verse:
Crawl on my belly ?til the sun goes down
I?ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away.
Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace.

So, crawl on my belly until the sun goes down
I?ll never wear your broken crown
I took the road and I fucked it all away.
Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace.

Verse:
So, crawl on my belly until the sun goes down
I?ll never wear your broken crown
I can take the road and I can fuck it all away.
But in this twilight our choices seal our fate.
