[F#m] [C#] [F#m]
[B] [F#m]
I watch the work of [B] my kin, [F#m] bold and boyful,
toying somewhere [B] between love [F#m] and abuse,
[E] calling to join [A] their third instead,
and joyful, [F#m] shaking the wings of [B] their terrible [F#m] youth.
Stressfully disowned [B] in some frozen [F#m] devotion,
no more alone [F] or myself [F#m] could I [E] be.
Lurched like [B] a [A] stranger, the arms ever [F#m] open,
no shortage of sordid, [G#m] no protest [F#] from [F#m] me.
With her sweet and [F] brave, [A] her [D#] unsold means,
[E] she'd see the danger, [F#m] small death, [E] and the [F#m] walking [E] sea.
[F#] With her [B] soft on [A] hair, her [D] unhardened leap,
[E] [F] she'd see the danger, small [E] death, and [F#m] the walking sea.
Feeling more human [G#m] than blood on [F#m] her flesh,
I laid my heart down with [G#m] her, and [F#m] slept her feet.
[E] Fresh from the [A] fields of fear and [F#m] fertile,
now that's bloody and raw, [G#m] but I still [F#m] really sleep.
With her sweet and brave, [A] her unsold means,
she'd [E] see the danger, small death, [F#m] and the walking sea.
With her soft on hair, [A] her unhardened leap,
[E] she'd see the danger, small death, and [F#m] the walking sea.

[F#m] [E] [A] Ooooooh!
Ooooooh!
[F#m] Ooooooh!
Ooooooh!
[F]
[F#m] Ooooooh!
Leashless confusion, [G#] I wander [F#m] the concrete,
wonder if [G#m] better [C#] now, [F#m] having [E] survived.
Jarring of [A] judgment and reasons to feed the [F#m] sweet
Eater for breath in [G#m] my [F#m] mouth, I'm alive with her.
With her sweet and brave, [A]
her unsold means,
[E] she'd see the danger, small death, and the [F#m] walking sea.
With her soft on hair, [A]
her unhardened leap,
[E] she'd see the danger, small death, and the [F#m] walking sea.
With her sweet and brave, [A]
her unsold means,
[E] she'd see the danger, small death, and [F#m] the walking sea.
With her soft on hair, her [A] unhardened leap,
[E] she'd see the danger, small death, and [F#m] the walking sea.
