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