Verse 1

F Let's call this the quiet Dmcity

Where screams are felt

as a wave of sA♯toplights

gunshots punctuate the Fnight

The sides we Dmtake divide

a Dmknife that A♯cut

And CI'm para--

A♯Blur all the Dmlines

A♯Tearing this Ccanvas

from the Dmwall

We A♯pulled all the Cleaves

from the trees that Dmfall

your trees that fall

your trees that fall

your trees that fall)

Dmdid into this hospital A♯bed

Hear voices from another Dmroom

"It happens all the Ftime"

wings of A♯the dove

See blue sDmkies getting caught

in the trail of all this sFmokeA♯

We can Dmrise like candles in

A♯the dark-yours always"

your new adDmdress

AsFleep you set the Dmfire

in A♯your Cown DmhouseF

And the night was

a Dmknife that A♯cut

And CI'm para--
