[Intro]
| Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm | x2
[Verse 1]
Bm It all hangs in the balance, it’s all a blur Bm This broken neck holds the weight of the world G E5 Bm The devil’s finally admitted every deed
Scarecrows and hotels, a savage thrill
Bm They come to life as your guts start to spill G E5 Bm And as it cuts and bleeds, a statue forms in me
I stand here frozen, I stand here frozen
[Chorus]
G A I wish I could forget it Bm D It’s so hard I’ll never get it right E5 Cold hearts on a colder night Bm The stronger the ties, the sharper the knife G A I wish I could forget it Bm D It’s so hard I’ll never get it right E5 Cold hearts on a colder night Bm The stronger the ties, the sharper the knife
[Verse 2]
Bm They said this place would be different, it’s still the same Bm I’m sanded faceless you’ve taken my name G E5 Bm A beaten mind won’t heal, it takes you where you’ve been
Thorn in my stomach, pain in my side
Bm You’re smashing protons as two worlds collide G E5 Bm With hands as cold as steel I feel you holding me
I stand here frozen, I stand here frozen
[Chorus]
G A I wish I could forget it Bm D It’s so hard I’ll never get it right E5 Cold hearts on a colder night Bm The stronger the ties, the sharper the knife G A I wish I could forget it Bm D It’s so hard I’ll never get it right E5 Cold hearts on a colder night Bm The stronger the ties, the sharper the knife
[Bridge]
Bm So I walked out of the valley Bm I let myself feel the sun on my bare back
N.C.
And melt the dirt off my skin
Bm I let the breeze of the wind cleanse me Bm I let the elements in
[Breakdown]
It was my only fucking option
Bm And again I was whole Bm And again I thought I could feel something one day Bm But this planet doesn’t have a sun Bm It only has a moon that’s lifeless Bm And every light that shines is a dead reflection
[Chorus]
G A I wish I could forget it Bm D It’s so hard I’ll never get it right E5 Cold hearts on a colder night Bm The stronger the ties, the sharper the knife G A I wish I could forget it Bm D It’s so hard I’ll never get it right E5 Cold hearts on a colder night Bm The stronger the ties, the sharper the knife
