Intro

F#m--D-E (x2)

Verse 1

the smell of incense

it fills the air inside this room

cast of light colorly strewn about the floor

a casket lined with pills

and the bitter taste of absinth

to wash it down and so it ends like it began

Chorus 1

at a cross along this interstate

a worn inscription all cracked and faded

these actions will remain when bodies turn to dust

and from this monument

E F#m--D-E(x2)

i will drown inside the anguish of your heart

Verse 2

a new dawn broke this morning

tears were raining in this room

as pure as holy water

reflecting images of you

this world is like a whore

so ravish and so beautiful

so bitter cold and all alone

Chorus 2

and if i had my way we'd wake up on the day we met

i'd stare into your heart for hours

and try to make you hear the sweetest thoughts

but not tonight we die inside each others arms

we'd revel in our last embrace

and kiss you as we die

Bridge

i rest my lifeless head upon your heart forever (x3)

Interlude

maybe i'll bring you sunlight after all i'm sorry

maybe i'll bring you sunlight after all i'm sorry (x4)

Interlude

maybe i'll greet sunlight after all I'm sorry

maybe i'll greet sunlight after all
