[D] I [Bm]
[D] got sunshine in my [A] stomach [G] Like I just rocked my baby to sleep
I [Bm] got sunshine in [A] my stomach
[G] But I can't [A] keep me [G] from creeping [A] sleep
[G] [A] Sleep deep in [Bm] the deep

My [Ebm] face moves to press my [Bbm] skin White liquid don't sour within
[Ebm] My thighs turn sour, [Bbm] turn sweat, turn sorrow [Ebm] Must tell myself that I'm not [Bbm] here
I'm drowning in a liquid fear [Ebm] Bottled in a strong [Bbm] compression
My distortion shows [Ebm] obsession in the can [Bbm]
Get me out of [Ebm] this can
[Bbm]
[Eb] If I keep [Ab] self-control I'll [Eb] be safe in [Ab] my soul
In [Eb] the childhood [Ab]
relief, brings [Eb] a moment [Ab]
relief [Bb] But my sinning [Dbm] soon returns
[Ab] And the night goes worse [Bb] My [A] spirit just
[Gb] melts
[Ebm]
Static tights, static nights [Bbm]
Shut me in, lock me tight
[Ebm]
Lips are dry, throat is dry [Bbm]
Feel that burning, stomach churning
[B]
I'm dressed up in a white costume [Bbm]
Batting out, leftover room
[Ebm]
Body's stretching, feel the [Bbm]
wrenching In the [Ebm] can
[Bbm]
Get me out of the [Ebm]
can
[Bbm]
In the glare [Ab] of the light I [Eb] see this great [Ab] kind of sight
[Eb] My page is torn [Ab] to form a star [Eb] This person [Ab] can't go very far
[Bb] All light, their things, [Ab] they're made by their strings
[Bb] Breathe, [A]
fire up, in memories [Gb] of their wasted ways

I can't turn his head, so [Eb] slowly now
[Bb] He can't be gone
And [Eb] he looks at me without a [Bb] smile
Doesn't
[Eb] even wanna try [Bb] to speak [Eb] I'm helpless in my [Bb] bottom's reach
And [Ab] a silent [Eb] tear of blood dribbles [Ab] down his [Eb] cheek
[Abm] And I watch him turn again and [Bb] leave the cage
[Eb] I'll never run away
[Ab]
[Eb] I'm [Fm] [Bb]
[Ebm] [B]
still falling,
[Ebm]
I can't keep on [Bbm] going
[Ebm]
[Bbm]
[Ebm] Hear it's loud, feel it's [Bbm] proud Holding still, the pins for [Ebm] kill
Chances narrow, but I'll make [Bbm] it In the push, I'm straight [Ebm]-jacket
Just like twenty-sixth street When [Bbm] they got me by my neck and [Ebm] feet
Precious building, frantic [Bbm] mall My head aches, jars, nearly straw
[Ebm] This pain, [Bbm] get me out of [Ebm] this bed
[Bbm] If
[Eb] I could change [Ab] the liquid [Eb] I could fill the [Ab] cracks of the [Eb] glass
I know that I [Ab] started at [Eb] my [Ab] own
[Dbm]
My outside junk disappears [Ab] and my cage dissolves
And [Bb]
without [A] any reason, my body [Gb] revolves
[Ebm] Keep [Bbm] on turning, keep [Ebm] on turning Keep [Bbm] on turning, keep [Ebm] on turning
Keep on [Bbm] turning, turning [Ebm]
