[Intro]
G C x4
[Verse 1]
G C/G Watching TV tired, bleeding on the bed G C/G The milk has just expired, all the leaves are dead G C/G I’m not quiet, you’ve been quiet — just receiving what you said G C/G Reeling, feeding, feeling filled by everything you fed G C/G I see you as you see yourself through all the books you read G C/G Overwhelmed with guilt and realizing the disease
[Chorus]
G C/G You give me chills, I’ve had it with the drills G C/G I’m nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills G C/G I’m empty till she fills, alive until she kills G C/G In her vampire empire, I am G C/G Falling, yeah G C/G Falling, yeah
[Verse 2]
G C/G I see you there rejecting all your earthly power G C/G Protecting and dissecting till you’ve emptied every hour G C/G We jump into the pond, then we come under the shower G C/G You lay upon my pillow and you open like a flower G C/G I wanted to see you naked, I wanted to hear you scream G C/G Wanted to kiss your skin and your everything G C/G I wanted to be your woman, I wanted to be your man G C/G I wanted to be the one that you could understand
[Chorus]
G C/G You give me chills, I’ve had it with the drills G C/G I’m nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills G C/G I’m empty till she fills, alive until she kills G C/G In her vampire empire, I am G C/G Falling, yeah G C/G Falling, yeah
[Bridge]
G C/G Oh, oh G C/G Oh, oh G C/G Oh, oh G C/G Oh, ah
[Verse 3]
N.C. N.C.
Well, I’ve walked into your dagger for the last time
N.C. N.C.
It’s like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow
N.C. N.C.
Where you can’t seem to hold me, can’t seem to let me go
N.C. N.C.
So I can’t find surrender and I can’t keep control
G C/G You turn me inside out and then you want the outside in G C/G You spin me all around, then you ask me not to spin G C/G You say you want to be alone and you want children G C/G You wanna be with me, you wanna be with him
[Chorus]
G C/G You give me chills, I’ve had it with the drills G C/G I’m nothing, you are nothing, we are nothing with the pills G C/G I’m empty till she fills, alive until she kills G C/G In her vampire empire, I am G C/G Falling, yeah G C/G Falling, yeah G C/G Falling, yeah G C/G Falling, yeah G C/G Falling, yeah G C/G Falling, yeah
