Bm                        D
It’s not until now that I realise
    Bm                   D
The injuries left hidden inside
        G                                      
And how scared I was that you’d be repulsed by this body of mine

           Bm                   D
That you’d cower away and you’d freak out
     Bm                        D
When all the worst parts of me leaked out
      G                                               D
Of my nose and my mouth, every pore of my skin and my ears and my eyes.


[Pre-Chorus]
      Em               D             Bm           G
And I told you my weak breathing was just anxiety breath
Bm                             A                   D                                     G
Scared of the forbidden, being left alone with the worst thoughts running wild inside my head


[Chorus]
        D
Cast my memory back
       G
Slowly draw in the net
        D                   Bm              G
Throw myself right into the current, will I float?
       D
What a time we did have
                G         
When we weren’t thinking so hard
       D                          Bm                     G
Well I guess it’s a comfort we’ve emptied our pockets of stones


[Verse 2]
Bm                        D
 With the flesh inside me crawling
        Bm                      D
And the lungs in my chest still heaving
     G                                               
I’ll try to untangle this mess that I’ve mangled and order it into a line

Bm                                     D
 But sometimes plain-speaking can’t do justice
       Bm              D
To the rawness and the roughness
       G                                         
Of the pieces of past that have cut me apart and made me a wreck by design


[Pre-Chorus]
      Em                D                          G
And I told you my quick breathing was just anxiety breath
Bm                           A              D                     G
Scared of the silence, being left alone and everything leading to death
    Em                 D                                        G
And now I’m alone, I’m riding home and my mind it twists and it cries
       Bm            A                  D                     G
Why is it only easy, is it always easy, easier to talk in the night?


[Chorus]
        D
Cast my memory back
       G
Slowly draw in the net
        D                   Bm              G
Throw myself right into the current, will I float?
       D
What a time we did have
                G         
When we weren’t thinking so hard
       D                          Bm                     G
Well I guess it’s a comfort we’ve emptied our pockets of stones


[Bridge]
     Bm
I am constantly pushing aside the debris
     D
I am constantly losing sight of my feet
     A             
I am trying to see where I should go
        Em                   G
But the words in my head are stuck in my throat

     Bm
I am constantly pushing aside the debris
     D
I am constantly losing sight of my feet
     A             
I am trying to see where I should go
        Em                   G
But the words in my head are stuck in my throat
        Em                   G
But the words in my head are stuck in my throat 

Are stuck in my throat, are stuck in my throat


[Chorus]
        D
Cast my memory back
       G
Slowly draw in the net
        D                   Bm              G
Throw myself right into the current, will I float?
       D
What a time we did have
                G         
When we weren’t thinking so hard
       D                          Bm                     G
Well I guess it’s a comfort we’ve emptied our pockets of stones
       D                          Bm                     G
Well I guess it’s a comfort we’ve emptied our pockets of stones
