[G] [F]
During the time of which [Bb] I speak, it was hard to turn [F] the other cheek [Bb] to the blows of [G] insecurity.
[C] Feeding [F] the cancer of [Bb] my intellect, [F] the blood of love [Bb] soon neglected, [F]
lay dying [Bb] in the strength of its [C]
impurity.
We were [Bb] all our friends, we thought we were so [G]
together.
They've [C] all gone and left each other in [Bb] search of fairer weather.
[F] Sit here in our storm and drink a toast [C]
to the slim chance of [F] love's recovery.
[Gm] [F]
[G]
[F] There I am, [Bb] a longer day, [F] a stargazer, paint [Bb] a picture of perfect [F] match, of how my [Bb] life and love [C] would be.
Not counting [F] the unmarked paths [Bb] of misdirection, [F] my compass, faith [Bb] in love's perfection,
[F] I missed a million miles of road [C] I should have seen.
We were all [G] our friends, we thought we were so together.
Left [C] each other one by one along [Bb] the road to fairer [F] weather.
And we sit here in our [Bb] storm [F] and drink a toast [C] to the slim chance of love's [F] recovery.
[C] Rave soaked and voice choked, [Eb] like silence screaming in a [F] dream, I searched for [Eb] absolute [Bb]
distinction.
[G] [C]
Not content to bow and [Eb] bend to the whims of culture, the soup-like [F] vultures eating us away, [D] eating us away, eating [Bb] us away to our [C]
extinction.
[G] [C] Oh [F] how I wish I were [Bb] a trinity, [F] so if I [Bb] lost a part of [G] me, [F] I still had [G] two of the same to live.
[C] But nobody [F] gets a lifetime [Bb] rehearsal, as [F] specks of dust, per [Bb] universal.
[F] So let this love [Bb] survive, would be the [C] greatest gift that we could give.
Tell [Bb] all the friends who think they're so [B] together, [G] that these [C] are ghosts and rises, all [Bb] these thoughts of fairer weather.
[F] Oh it's storming out, I feel safe within the [C] arms of [D] love's [F] discovery.
