Chords

Em
You must destroy

All who you employ

     Am
To protect your last invention

     B
Work hard its destruction

                 Em
Ignore your good intention

You must ignore the wrong voice Whose voice

Am
A peculiar choice

         B
Well I'm sure

                 Em
You and I can't remember

Living like a backwards trainwreck

          Am
trying to disguise the deceit

Intrinsic in our step

            B
When love's got us by the neck

                    Em
Why can't we just surrender

Em
I'll be quiet

                 Am
I won't wake you up

B
I'll be quiet

                 Em
I won't wake you up

Don't whine Drink wine Like terpentine

                  Am
Cleaning out your inside in line

          B
From your toes up through your spine

                 Em
Pretend you're a conductor

Maestro without music God without man

Am
Me without you

Holding your hand

B
Falling like a leaf

              Em
Crying like a man

[Chorus]

Em
We silently confess through open eyes

             Am
Setting fire to the web spun right behind

B
In my mind's a spider

                      Em
And in your heart's a fly

When you're meek you are malicious

                Am
Like a tame dog growing vicious

B
Somehow still suspicious

            Em
Faithlessly religious

[Chorus]
