Drowning the Skies Up Above
Andrew Horn©

D 
This broken heart
G
Doesn't get better
     Bm     
With I'm sorry I hurt you,
      A
But that's what your into
     G
With me
      D
And no pain is reduced
         G
By your letters of virtue
   Bm      A     G
No sign of apology

 
     D                        G
And I'll get no sleep for the rest of the week
         Bm             A             G
Cause my chest wants to beat out your name
   Bm              A            G
My chest wants to beat out your name


     D
The clock has not passed
       G
And no time has elapsed
          Bm             A           G
Since the first day that I felt this way
D
And no thought was given
 G
To how much I've hurt him
  Bm            A           G
No conscience as she walks away

Unconscious as we walk away


         D
And these thought wont erase
     G                     Bm      A     G
The time or the place when I felt so in love
     D                       G
And this bitter taste, it is linked to your face
        Bm           A        G
And I'm drowning the skies up above...


      A          G
With Prayer-and Tears
      A           G
With Failures-and Fears



Now I'll walk around with this terrible sound of a drum in my lungs of shame

And I'll hold my breathe ..til the moment of death

When I die I will burst into flames

And I'll have no peace or a sign of release

Until my chest beats out your name



Now everyone knows and our secrets are blown

But I don't care what people say

Now your out on your own and your so far from home

But forgiveness is out of your way

And no drug or no pill

You will never refill the greatest of all my divides

No change of location or turning of pages

Can put back the color in my eyes


And I feel as if I'm alone

And I'm filling your ear through the phone

Asking for Prayer-and Tears

Less Failure-and Fears



These feelings like Orchards with Apples of Torture

Still I am inclined to Bite

Red like your lips they are perfectly gripped by mine

Full of your poison inside

They are perfectly poisoned inside

There is nothing but poison inside



These words are my healing my inner most dealings

Through verbal and mental reprise

My chance to scream and to clean my bloom stream of you 

My words without your replies 

These are my words without your replies


And your life is a movie, each moments a new scene

And I've bought every line that you..ve said

But you've stopped short of a sequel and nothing can equal

The twist that you'll find in the end



And I'll get no sleep for the rest of the week

Cause my chest wants to beat out your name
