Intro
D#m F# B (x2)
[Verse 1]
D#m F# B
I lay around this stillborn Sunday
D#m F# B
the nameless, graceless wreck you leave in me
D#m F# B
I stood silent at your waking theater,
D#m F# B
Deluded and grotesque, I hemorrhage history
[Chorus]
F# C# D#m
But I won't be visited again
F# C# B
By the ghosts of things that never came to be
F# C# D#m
I won't let my heart settle in
F# C#
To the fallow soil that sprawls out
D#m B C# F#
From the fringes of the swaying Salton Sea
[Interlude]
F# D#m (x2)
[Verse 2]
D#m F# B
We let their hurried beat busy our bones
D#m F# B
But our tempo tempered hearts are always idle
D#m F# B
We drink the water from their fountain
F# D#m B C#
This place could never be the things that we both need
F# D#m B C#
No, this place could never be the things that we both need
[Verse 3]
B D#m C#
And I want the things that I can't have
B D#m C#
And I need to find a new way out
F# C# B
And I will crawl out from the wreckage of my past
F# C#
And we'll fall head first and weary of
D#m B C#
The place we've hung our hats for all these years
D#m C#
Wait for the night, we'll disappear
[Chorus]
F# C# D#m
But I won't be visited again
F# C# B
By the ghosts of things that never came to be
F# C# D#m
I won't let my heart settle in
F# C#
To the fallow soil that sprawls out
D#m B C# F#
From the fringes of the swaying Salton Sea
