Verse 1
(D major) Your (E minor) kiss was a lonely prayer (D major)
When you slipped it into my mouth (C major)
I closed my eyes and held (A minor) it in
And then I exhaled it out (E minor)
The glow of the downtown light (D major) s
Casting shadows across your face (C major)
As if all the buildings knew (A minor) (E major)
I could only know half of you (E minor)
Verse 2
And I was a snake (E minor) under your flower (D major) s
I just wanted to disappear (C major)
Into the understory of your beau (A minor) ty
Never to reappear (E minor)
But there's a name writ on your cast (D major)
Above the bruised and
broken bones (C major)
That tells everybody that you meet (E major)
To whom the damage is owed (A minor)

Verse 3
We are a (A minor) wave of white noise (F major)
Beneath the city sleeping (C major)
I saw the train doors closing (D major)

Here in the asphalt meadows (F major)
There's only one thing that grows (C major)
Finding the light through
the concrete (D major)
Getting trampled (C major) under our feet
Verse 4
(E minor)
You said all your bridges and roads (D major)
They all lead to an airport (C major)
Planes drifting off into the sky (A minor)

Lying naked in your unmade bed (C major)
I was thinking of how to tell (A minor) you (E major)
What my ticket read (E minor)

A single candle slowly burning down (C major)

Finding the light through
the concrete (D major)
Getting trampled (C major) under our (A minor) feet

the concrete (D major)
Getting trampled (C major) under our feet
