[F] All of my friends with their lives slowly [C] falling to pieces
[F] So I bite my tongue and I realize I don't [C] know what peace
The [F] birds on the garden gate are singing but I [C] cannot hear them
And [F] I stay within bedroom walls patiently waiting [C] to be near them
Oh, [F]
I've fallen down [C] a well with a ladder [F] made of ice
And I can't move [C] either leg but all my friends can [F] climb out fine
So I'll [Fm] watch them climb
[F] Picking apart every word that you say [C] so I get it
[F] Trying to bargain with demons that know [C] I'll regret it
[F] My blood splattered on the trees from miles away I [C] can feel you
[F] It took all my energy to finally discover [C] the real you
Oh, [F] I'm tired of falling down [C] a well with a ladder made [F] of ice
And I can't move [C] either leg but all my friends can climb [F] out fine
So I'll [Fm] watch them climb
And [F] I notice you [Fm] so desperately [C] waiting for me to come back
In [F] the darkest parts [Fm] of my memories [C] I'm there with you in the back
[F] Where did I get [Fm] so old?
[C] Where did my hands start to crack from the pressure [F] to make myself [Fm] palatable?
[C] I'm just getting by [D] with the hope that [F] I'll escape from the well
Taking my time from [Fm] the center of hell
I'll watch myself climb [C] and as I see the light of a fire that stands [D] on the low
[F] I'll see that the [C] world has been waiting for me to come home
[F] Scrubbing the skin where you touched me until [C] I'm exhausted
I [F] still feel the weight of your words in the air [C] like I'm hungry
[F] I stare out at the trees and wonder where I'd [C] be if I gave in
[F] Would I ever leave or would I still be in [C] your haven?
Oh
[F]
