[Verse 1]
B D A
Under an eclipse of ever-rising feeling
B D
Moving faster through my veins
A B
And bleeding out the sun
D A
That's beating down our necks
B D A G
And burning my eyes
[Pre Chorus]
B D A
If this is a crutch for the weak
G F#
Then I am the least of these
B D A
So cut off my arms and break my legs
G F#
So I don't feel this anymore
B D A G F#
Choking on all of the feeling
B D A G F#
That I'm swallowing in
[Chorus]
B Bm D A G B
Tasting the failure on my lips
Bm D A G B
That I've lead in
Bm D A G B
That I've lead in
Bm D A G
That I've lead in
[Breakdown]
F# x4
F#
And this is my last chance for survival
F#
B last ditch effort to cure my ache
[Verse 2]
B Bm D
We're so vain aren't we?
A G B
We're so proud and empty
Bm D A G B
We're left leaning on our only intrigue
Bm D A G B
The lies that I've told they won't bury us whole
Bm D A G
They won't find us in time
[Bridge Breakdown]
This is the end of the story that I can't forget

This goes far be-yond our loyalties
E C E G
And we feign as a shield
E C E G
That's teeming with guilt and resonance

But we held our heads so high
