Em
One is for envy and one just for spite

C
The cuts in my heart, they show in your eyes

G
Don't make it better, the twisting knife turns all

D
by itself, on to someone else.

Em
Your self-liberation will leave this behind

C
Beyond slings and arrows that rain on our minds

G
You'll make it better, shake it off

         D             G
It never mattered anyway...
[Chorus]
    G                D
If we don't make it alive

                               Em
Well it's a hell of a good day to die.

         D                   C
All our light that shines strong

       D           G
Only lasts for so long.

                        D
And it's ashes to ashes again

                         Em
Should we even try to pretend?

         D                   C
All our light that shines strong

       D           G
Only lasts for so long.
[Verse 2]
Em
The banner you're waving is burning and red

C
It's blocking the sunlight that shines overhead

G
You against the world, diamonds and pearls

        D
Voices inside you churn, watch the city burn

Em
Your own liberation will leave them behind

C
All the slings and arrows that rain on your mind

G
Don't make it better, break it 'cause it never

D             G
mattered anyway...
[Chorus]
    G                D
If we don't make it alive

                               Em
Well it's a hell of a good day to die.

         D                   C
All our light that shines strong

       D           G
Only lasts for so long.

                        D
And it's ashes to ashes again

                         Em
Should we even try to pretend?

         D                   C
All our light that shines strong

       D           G
Only lasts for so long.
[Bridge] Em C G D
Em   C        G        D
I    won't    calm     down

Em
The banner you're waving

C
Is burning and red

G
You against the world, diamonds and pearls

         D                               G
It never mattered, mattered, mattered anyway...
[Chorus]
    G                D
If we don't make it alive

                               Em

Should we even try to pretend?

         D                   C
All our light that shines strong
