Key: C minor
Verse 1
and its going no where.
These words I see them some where
This path I walk by daylight
This bending corner is upon us
don't know what to say by
May I may I take you forward?
I'm who you've always wanted
You don't know the order
Ebm
Eb
I'm already at the summit
Bb
Eb
I already speak your language
I see the trickle of a brook
over a fallen body
He wears the thistle we mistook
him assault and robbery
So when they halt the bombing
Come meet me at the clearing
As results are coming we can see
Bb
Cm
if practice matches theory
And then assess our losses and
then we learn our lessons
Then we count the tragedies and
Get back – Get back - Back
Cause these songs won't write them
selves' and its going no where
When it's all worn off where do ya go
These songs don't write them
selves' and it's going no where
When it's all worn off
Bb
Cm
where do ya go
When it's all worn off where do ya go
(When its all worn)
When it's all worn off where do
ya go (worn off)
Bb
Eb
(When its all worn off)
When it's all worn off where do ya go
When it's all worn off where do ya go
Where do ya go where do ya go
In the shadowed expanse between
the distance of our hopes
I span from here to now with gossamer ropes
A broken bridge the only edge
shakes with every passing step
We cannot repair all the things
we have not kept
to keep my eyes from drying up
Ab
Bb
I've slept enough in re cent days to keep
The echoes of my empty heart are the
closest things I have to screams
Fire at end and beginning
so I fall to in- between
Choked on cholesterol sentiments
from aorta to arteries
Bb
Cm
With better aim then Artemis,
gave key stone to arch enemies
Who swum in our midst like clown
fish with sea anemones
and sex sells extremities
living through chemistry
Ab
Cm
tossed to anonymity it's my apocalypse now
I'm saying now serenity
Ab
Cm
We didn't start the fire but provide
the kindling
(When it's all worn off where
do ya go)
We didn't start the fire but provided
the kindling
(When it's all worn
off where do ya go)
When it's all worn off where do ya go
When it's all worn off where do ya go
When it's all worn off where do ya
go(off)
When it's all worn
off where do ya go
Meet me at the clearing
Now that the ons and offs of the
bombs have stopped
Upon this common spot our
common thoughts calm us
Costs promises lost comments
draw us closer
Yes sir no sir pressures over
Open mouths for closure
Eb
Bb
Cry for how I lacked compassion
Friendship shell shocked
Made at the guillotine
Made at the crossroads
My trick is forgiveness
Fugue state I'm no philistine
You yelled stop I didn't hear you
Lovers leap from the mezzanine
Through hell hot on the path of gasoline
Know Christ know cross road block
Slick ice cold stop slow cries crowed
I denied you thrice I denied
you that isn't right
but had to decide
Bb
Eb
Bb
Played your turn ran out of your life
Eb
Bb
Boss codes at the crossroads
I'm glad you're alive
After my tongue licked clean
Traded the pain with numbness
clean enough the pain is numb
I won't defend what I've done
just could a been cleaner but I
Pray there's some kind of benefit from it
prayed and wasn't mean enough
I would never do what I did my good
meanings just
I would never do what I did
made it worse what I did
Coulda been a good little boy i'm
a coulda been cleaner left an
Big bad wolf wanna comeback
kid abscess of indifference
Rags, wounds, incisions cold feet in a
blizzard of indecision
War fatigues yes I wore fatigues
Fields cleanse made you hafta
cleanse my bayonette
Til healed when it's all worn
Bb
Cm
When it's all worn off where do ya go
When it's all worn off where
do ya go (off)
These songs won't write
them selves and its going no where.
