[Intro]
Bm D Bm F#m E  x2


[Verse 1]
Bm
  There’s a darkness
D                      Bm
  In the most well lit room
                   F#m
Even the brightest bulb
            E
needs to be held in place
Bm          D
  and fed by the energy we
Bm       F#m   E
fight for   we fight for


[Verse 2]
Bm                  D
  I am the radiator throwing heat
    Bm
And you’re the fire burning oil
F#m     E            Bm  D
this we need to stay warm
       Bm                F#m  E
Oh the tales we tell are glorious


[Refrain]
D                   E
  Under the bed we sleep
                    Bm
Under the dreams we dream
The dust that fills our lungs
                   D
Accumulates to the root
              E
of our body’s weakness
A/C#             D
We are what we believe in


[Chorus 1]
D               E
Blind by self depletion scared
         A                Bm
I got to dry my hands and bleach
         D             E
them all Find myself a reason
       A       Bm
not to cover up


[Post Chorus]
D E A Bm  x2

then
Bm


[Verse 3]
D
  The court didn’t give me
  E                 Bm
a chance to make my case
Thrown out like old boxes
my words they sit wet in
    D
the rain Until they dissolve
 E
away just balling up like
    Bm
old paper almost like litter


[Verse 4]
       D
To the side of the road
         E
until it no longer
             Bm
Can hold its shape just
crumble into the earth
          D
someday Becoming sand to
  E                Bm
remain that way forever


[Chorus 2]
D               E
Blind by self depletion scared
         A                Bm
I got to dry my hands and bleach
         D             E
them all Find myself a reason
       A       Bm
not to cover up


[Post Chorus]
D E A Bm  x2

then
Bm


[Instrumental]
Bm A/C# D E  x2


[Chorus 3]
D               E
Blind by self depletion scared
         A                Bm
I got to dry my hands and bleach
         D             E
them all Find myself a reason
       A       Bm
not to cover up
