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)
