[E] [D] [C] [E]
[A] [C] [A]
[C] [F] [Dm] [E]
[F] [Am] [F] [Am]
I know I'm a future, I'll steal your body.
What if I told you that I planned this?
What if I want to lose control?
What if I take the blame, [Dm] become [Am] the drug and dissolve it?
Just [G] swallow.
[F] Colouring your [C] [Am] silhouettes,
erasing for [D] your bizarre [F] ends,
so that the shame [C] from our [D] lips
will [A] reach the amber burning sky.
I know we fall [C] from grace,
[F] and think we love [A] taking shape,
but it's us who sets [C] the flame.
And although I'm [G] sober,
[Am]
I've played this role a thousand [C] times,
the same old tricks, [Am] stupid lies,
[A] to disappear without [C] a trace,
[F] concealing the [G] crimes on your [Am] face.
I know we fall from pleasure,
all you are is [F] pain,
[Am] and to dissolve every second,
all your [B] suffering.
I think [Em] we're in [Am] a can stop,
crawling to your doorstep,
every time you're back,
and I'm self-destructing,
trusting nothing's [G] lying.
[F] Do you know what I [C] think of [Dm] that?
I took my time [F] to start you in,
so take me out [C] of my [D] head,
and spread your ashes on [A] my chest.
I know we fall from [C] grace,
[F] and think we love [A] taking shape,
but it's us who sets the [C] flame.
And although I'm [G] sober,
[A] I've played this role a thousand [C] times,
the same old tricks, [A] stupid lies,
to disappear without a [F] trace,
concealing the [G] crimes on your [Em] face.
[A] FALL!
[Bb] [A]
[Bb] [A] [Bb] [A]
[C] Your [F] skin like winter,
[D] I felt you chill [Am] up,
I heard you whisper,
[C] like the hills were quaker,
[F] I watched you wither up,
[D] I am the killer.
[Am] [Ab] [A] Again for a while,
we fall from [F] grace,
and think we love [A] taking shape,
but it's us who sets the [C] flame.
[F] And although I'm [G] sober,
[A] I've played this role [F] a thousand times,
the same old tricks, [Am] stupid lies,
to disappear [A] without a [F] trace,
concealing the [G] crimes on [Am] your
[A] face.
