Verse 1:
       A5                           G5    C5
I wake up at the end of a long dark lonely year
              D5               A5
it's bringing out the worst in me
                        G5         C5
I hear your voice start breaking in fear
                   F5
when the lights go down
       A5                    G5     C5
and I still feel you looking over my shoulder
                         D5
your sinking guilt and approaching nightmare
A5                           G5
  and I know none of us will survive
C5                   F5
  cause I know everything


Interlude: A5  G5 C5  D5  A5  G5 C5  F5


Verse 2:
       A5                               G5   C5
and my dear I need you to move a little faster
                       D5
the second cast is the rest of your life
A5                             G5   C5     
  your final word and an itchy finger
                 F5
then it's taken away
          A5                              G5    C5
and we'll be beaten down without mercy or meaning
                    D5
I turn my face to a careless skyline
A5                                   G5   C5                      
  I'm searching hard for a sign from heaven
                         F5
but they've forgotten me here


Chorus:
C5                   D5              A5
  You can just stop talking I get it
(I hear your silence loud and clear)
C5                     D5                        A5
  I know its barely a thought, but it'll see us through
C5                 D5                    A5
  I'm only saying please to just let it happen
(let it happen and we'll make it through)
C5                        D5              A5
  yeah you can just stop talking I get it


Interlude: A5  G5 C5  D5  A5  G5 C5  F5


Verse 2:
A5                          G5     C5
  Sex, fuck and flourescent lighting
                     D5
a hollow point on an angry bullet
A5                             G5 C5
  we're on the teeth of a crocodile
                        F5
we're in the mouth of a gun
        A5                                      G5   C5
and sometimes at night I feel I'm just a broken vessel
                     D5
an instrument with a darker purpose
A5                                       G5     C5
  I'm at the throat of the young and the helpless
                             F5
cause they've got nothing to say


(Repeat Chorus)
