C#5 C#maj7 C#5 C#maj7 x4
[Verse 1]
F# A E
Under an eclipse of ever-rising feeling
F# A
Moving faster through my veins
E F#
And bleeding out the sun
A E
That's beating down our necks
F# A E D
And burning my eyes
[Pre Chorus]
F# A E
If this is a crutch for the weak
D C#
Then I am the least of these
F# A E
So cut off my arms and break my legs
D C#
So I don't feel this anymore
F# A E D C#
Choking on all of the feeling
F# A E D C#
That I'm swallowing in
[Chorus]
F# F#m A E D F#
Tasting the failure on my lips
F#m A E D F#
That I've lead in
F#m A E D F#
That I've lead in
F#m A E D
That I've lead in
[Breakdown]
C# x4
C#
And this is my last chance for survival
C#
F# last ditch effort to cure my ache
[Verse 2]
F# F#m A
We're so vain aren't we?
E D F#
We're so proud and empty
F#m A E D F#
We're left leaning on our only intrigue
F#m A E D F#
The lies that I've told they won't bury us whole
F#m A E D
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
B G B D
And we feign as a shield
B G B D
That's teeming with guilt and resonance
B G B
But we held our heads so high
