Em
You must destroy
All who you employ
     Am
To protect your last invention
     B
Work hard its destruction
                 Em
Ignore your good intention
You must ignore the wrong voice
Whose voice
Am
A peculiar choice
         B
Well I'm sure
                 Em
You and I can't remember
Living like a backwards trainwreck
          Am
trying to disguise the deceit
Intrinsic in our step
            B
When love's got us by the neck
                    Em
Why can't we just surrender

Em
I'll be quiet
                 Am
I won't wake you up
B
I'll be quiet
                 Em
I won't wake you up


Don't whine
Drink wine
Like terpentine
                  Am
Cleaning out your inside in line
          B
From your toes up through your spine
                 Em
Pretend you're a conductor
Maestro without music
God without man
Am
Me without you
Holding your hand
B
Falling like a leaf
              Em
Crying like a man

[Chorus]

Em
We silently confess through open eyes
             Am
Setting fire to the web spun right behind
B
In my mind's a spider
                      Em
And in your heart's a fly
When you're meek you are malicious
                Am
Like a tame dog growing vicious
B
Somehow still suspicious
            Em
Faithlessly religious 

[Chorus]
