We [E] all escaped [D] from somewhere else
[A] To the cruel, [E] cruel city [D] where the asphalt melts
of our [C#m] anger, [Bm] which finds no release
In the lab-rat maze of [D] ever -dampening streets
[A] It's no [E] surprise, [D] we've [A] got blood in our [E] eyes
[D]
We've [A] been alone too [E] long
[A]
[A] To the cruel, [E] cruel city [D] where the asphalt melts
of our [C#m] anger, [Bm] which finds no release
In the lab-rat maze of [D] ever -dampening streets
[A] It's no [E] surprise, [D] we've [A] got blood in our [E] eyes
[D]
We've [A] been alone too [E] long

[F#] Tonight I'm dreaming of my queer girl [D] gang
We who walk this [E] deadly path
[F#m] In the city that tries to kill us each [D] night
We will soon bow before [E] our wrath
[F#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [E] _ _
[F#m] We've got death's stairs to ward off [D] enemies
Amulets to ward [E] off fear
[F#m] And I try to keep count, try to guess the amount
[D] To make it through the coming [E] year
_ _ The coming _ _ _ year
[F#] _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] So now we're calling out the stations across the underground
[A] Gather all your sandwiches and send them out
[B] If you get the signal, come defeat the crown
And nobody [E] knows you're where _ _ _
[F#m] We're out here on the [A] attack _
[D] We went and got Lack in [E] Black _

_ [F#] The cis question asks, we really exist [D] sometimes
Sometimes even we've [E] got doubts
[F#] But the feminine deferred like a rubbed out word
[D] Is still passed around from [E] mouth to mouth [F#] Hell yeah _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [E] _ _
[F#m] We might smile and laugh in a photograph
[D] But you know our pretty [B] heads are haunted
[F#] We're the frozen girls in a planned out world
[D] That never answered our stars [E] while we wanted [F#] No _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] So now we're in the territory we've been in before
[A] And the preparation is beginning to [Bm] warm
The streets of the city's what we're asking for
[D] We'll take them if they're [E] not given
_ _ _ [F#m] We're never coming [A] back
