                   Am
I wade through the earth,

           C                Em
Sowing my own, bound up in discords

              F
Spread in the stones,

                         Am
Planting deep into ready fears.

Am                     C
Soak in these heavy rains,

C               Em                       F
Break from your chrysalis beneath the clay.

F
Though I left you behind,

    Am      G      F
I'm all the while, wanting, to make my way home.

F       C      Dm            F                  G  G#
All the while, watching, to see just how you've grown.

               Am             C
I'm the seeds among you, I am emerald blades

     Dm                           F
With other sides and deeper shades.

G               Am                C
I'm the weeds among you, I am constriction.

        Dm
I'm the tightness in your chest.

F       G    Am
I could ruin you.

Am                    Dm        Am
I am the horizon, the sinking sun,

Am                    Dm            F                Am
I'm the buried, the believer, the tomorrow that will come.

      Dm               Am                       Dm
The tomorrow that will come.

               Am             C
I'm the seeds among you, I am emerald blades

     Dm                           F
With other sides and deeper shades.

G               Am                C
I'm the weeds among you, I am constriction.

        Dm
I'm the tightness in your chest.

F       G    Am
I could ruin you.

              E
I could ruin you.

Am
Convict me of the devil in the details,

   E                                   F
Of these crimes; oh so meticulous were we,

           Dm
I'll plead guilty.

           E
I'll plead guilty to every taken chance.

E
Cause I

am

              G Am
Tangled machinery, I am wreckage.

C               F
Distinguish the scars between;

                            F  E
The pleasure as you dragged me down,

        G            G#          Am
Or the scars as they dragged you free.

Am                     G   Am
I am the knotted anchors below the ground,

                    C          F
I'm the shadow that weighs you down.

                          F     E
I'm the ghost on your lips, the phantom's kiss,

             G           G#
I'll be the page of your book that's

Am      C          Dm        F
missing, oh that's missing

G              Am             C
I'm the seeds among you, I am emerald blades

     Dm                           F
With other sides and deeper shades.

G              Am                C
I'm the weeds among you, I am constriction.

        Dm
I'm the tightness in your chest.

F       G    Am
I could ruin you.

Am                         Dm
I am the knotted anchors below the ground,

        G                        Am
I'm the shadow that weighs you down.

                                F
I'm the ghost on your lips, the phantom's kiss,
