Chemical Burns

Heaven breaks beneath the harm
As tiny speakers crackle out your labored song
Stretch your life to take it in
There's no need to lie, we both know you'll be going

Feels like I'm out there
The fragrance of your wet hair
I've been around this town with you a time or two, dear
I've seen the moon against your lips and battled my fear
Ive seen it all, dear

It feels like I lived there with you
It feels I will die here now
And it feels I'm a slave to this ground
I've been around love
Still living underground, love

Poison burning up your arms
I just stand beside you dying for being strong
Squint your eyes to take me in
There's no need to lie, we both know you'll be going

Feels like I'm up there
The tender loving sweetness
I've been around this life with you a time or two, dear
I've seen the moon against your lips and battled my fear
And Id do it again, dear

It's feels like I lived there with you
It feels I will die here now
And it feels I'm a slave to this ground
I've been around love
Still living underground, though

It feels like I lived there with you
Remember pleasures so hard and so few
It feels I'm a slave to this ground
Ive been around, love
Still living underground
