[Verse 1]
Gm Bb Cm Gm
I thought this time I might just walk away from you
Eb Bb
You were a thief, yeah, and I was the proof
Cm Gm
But you don't ever cry, so no telling the truth
Bb Cm Gm
The first time that I tried to run away from you
Eb Bb
You gave me a list, said, "Now, baby, you choose"
Cm Gm
But it wasn't engraved, it felt more like a bruise
[Chorus 1]
Cm
Oh, I wasn't ashamed then
Gm
Of my degree
Eb Dm7 Cm Bb F
The fear that I once paid for now was free
Cm
But I wasn't afraid then
Bb
Of who I'd become
Eb Dm7 Cm Bb F
In a desperate vain attempt to talk to God
Gm
I saw, I saw
[Verse 2]
Gm Bb Cm Gm
Now I'm the same, lost my decree, and it paid for you
Eb Bb
I was a liar, I was stuck in the fog
Cm Gm
Yeah, and you were turnеd around, I was pretty much lost
Bb Cm Gm
I'm the first of four that tried to cast away from you
Eb Bb
Into thе dark, you were a spear
Cm Gm
I was holding your head, you were watching me kneel
[Chorus 2]
Cm
I was barely born then
Gm
I was hardly evolved
Eb Dm7 Cm Bb F
I was pacing back and forth to calm the squall
Cm
So I ran out of reasons
Bb
Of places to fall
Eb Dm7 Cm Bb F
Would you take my heart and nail it to your wall?
I saw, I saw

Bb Cm
Once you reach the top it takes your air
Eb Bb
Are you hollow?
Eb Bb Cm
Are you holl-lower than you think you've ever been?
Eb Bb
Are you hollow?
Eb Bb
Are you hollow?
[Chorus 3]
Cm
I don't want to believe it
Gm
Stuck in my thought
Eb Dm7 Cm Bb F
I've been trying to replicate the mask of God
Cm
Now I'm starting to feel it
Bb
Now the guilt's falling off
Eb Dm7 Cm Bb F
When I turned my eyes around, I learned to talk
