      Theres a man on the corner   Selling dozens of bones

           Every kind of bone    Except the one that I want.

Everything what your eyes do, you're trying to sleep
But where your tongue rests, is it against your teeth.

        It decides to touch.

Verse
-----

Asleep is the safest
place you could be
You can try hard to catch it
It just catches you
Imagine a camera
Coming up from your feet
Relax all your muscles son
Just hope your heart's in one piece

Chorus 
------

(strum all chords)

And now, it's bigger than us.
It's bigger than everything, it decides to touch.
