G#m Bmaj7
Driving with the angel of death
C#m G#m
I pass by your old apartment
G#m Bmaj7
Sniffing up the pills you left
C#m G#m
Inside the limousine
[Pre-chorus]
C#m B
Nobody could tell me how far
F# G#m
You said "we'll stop to read each tea leaf"
C#m B
Nobody could tell me how long
F# G#m
Just pacing patiently
[Chorus]
B F# E
I arrive, in the form of a radical being
B F# E G#m Bmaj7
You arrive, but the story can never be told
C#m G#m
(It's harder now to hold you)
[Verse]
G#m Bmaj7
Sleeping with the angel of death
C#m G#m
I still find you in my shadow
G#m Bmaj7
Learning how the mirror reflects
C#m G#m
I lose myself in you
[Pre-chorus]
C#m B
I was told it wouldn't be long
F# G#m
"Life's a basket full of cravings"
C#m B
Better than the evil you know
F# G#m
Repeat yourself in me
[Chorus]
B F# E
You arrive, on the hood of your step father's Lincoln
B F# E
The surprise, and I couldn't remember the words
G#m G#m7/A# B F# E
I'm on fire, and the guilt's doing all of the thinking
B F# E C#m B G#m F#
I'm alive, but it isn't the same as before
[Bridge]
C#m B
Slowly we become a single mold
G#m F#
Watching as my skin becomes your skin and starts to hold
C#m B
I was told that there's a wonder in the place our bodies go
G#m F#
Driving 'round the sins of both my lives will keep you cold
C#m B
I deserve it, I've been stalling, I've been selfish, I've been wrong
G#m F#
Finally I heard my name, the absolution called
C#m B
Now I need it, now I crave the writing burned into the wall
G#m F#
Sitting in your hands to watch the ending of it all
[Chorus]
B F# E
I arrive, in the eyes of my grandfather's daughter
B F# E
In the light, but I couldn't remember your words
G#m G#m/A# B F# E
I survived, and the guilt's falling off me in pieces
B F# E
I'm alive, and it isn't the same as before
[Outro]
G#m Bmaj7 C#m G#m (x4)
G#m Bmaj7 C#m G#m
I thought this time I might just walk away from you
G#m Bmaj7 C#m G#m
If I'm the thief and you're the proof, its pain to choose
C#m G#m
It felt like a first, but it wasn't new
C#m G#m Bmaj7
It felt like a sin, it was more like a noose
C#m G#m G#m Bmaj7
It's harder now to hold ya
C#m G#m
It's harder now to hold ya
G#m Bmaj7 C#m G#m
I'm ashamed, lost my decree, it paid to lose
G#m Bmaj7 C#m G#m
The first of sixty thousand hours obsessed with you
C#m G#m
It wasn't a lie, but it wasn't the truth
C#m G#m Bmaj7
I tried blaming me, ended up blaming you
C#m G#m G#m Bmaj7
It's harder now to hold ya
C#m G#m G#m Bmaj7
It's harder now to hold ya
C#m G#m G#m Bmaj7
It's harder now to hold ya
C#m G#m G#m Bmaj7
It's harder now to hold ya
