These Words

            C                 Dm  
Through the years of decay we walk
                Am
 like tigers in cages
      F                    G      
With each passing turn the smaller
                 Am
 and smaller the circles
      C                 Dm        
Every weapon and word legitimate 
      Am
now as protection


      C                  Dm      
But these things should never be 
Am
spoken
F                   G        Am
These things should never be spoken


   C                Dm            
I stand undefeated alone in the 
         Am
ring just pacing
     F                   G        
The sweat and the blood dried on 
             Am
my hands all wasted

               C                 
I’m shouting "come back and fight 
     Dm
for I am the king"
         F                         
But the lights are all out and the 
 G
people are gone
      Am                           
We’ve always burned brightest when 
C
no one was watching
    G                       
Now I kiss the lines on your 
 Am
beautiful face


    C                   Dm       
But these things should never be 
Am
spoken
F                   G        Am
These things should never be spoken


     C                        Dm  
And sometimes your hunger for life
                 Am
 seems like desperation
           F                   
And when I read about the world 
            G                 Am
these days all I can feel is hatred
    C                    Dm
The fortune teller she’s closing her
 doors
     F                             
She looked into the crystal and saw
 G
 nothing at all
         Am                    
They’re waiting around here for 
 C
something to happen
     G                            
They won’t really want it when it 
Am
rolls out to greet them


     C                   Dm      
But these things should never be 
Am
spoken
 F                  G        Am
These things should never be spoken
