Verse 1
G
C
Watching TV tired, bleeding on the bed
G
The milk has just expired,
C
all the leaves are dead
G
I'm not quiet, you've been quiet,
C
just receiving what you said
G
Reeling, feeding, feeling filled
C
by everything you fed
G
I see you as you see yourself
C
through all the books you read
G
Overwhelmed with guilt
C
and reali- zing the disease
Chorus 1
G
C
You give me chills, I've had it with the drills
G
I'm nothing, you are nothing,
C
we are nothing with the pills

I am empty 'til she fills, alive until she kills

In her vampire empire,

I'm the fish and she's my gills

Verse 2
G
I see you there rejecting
C
all your earthly power
G
Protecting and dissecting
C
'til you've emptied every hour
G
We jump into the pond
C
and then we come under the shower
G
You lay upon my pillow
C
and you open like a flower
G
I wanted to see you naked,
C
I wanted to hear you scream
G
I wanted to kiss your skin
C
and your everything
G
I wanted to be your woman
C
and I wanted to be your man
G
I wanted to be the one
C
that you could understand

Verse 3
G
Well, I walked into your dagger
C
for the last time in a row
G
It's like trying to start a fire
C
with matches in the snow
G
You can't seem to hold me here,
C
can't seem to let me go
G
So I can't find surrender,
C
can't seem to keep control
G
You turn me inside out
C
and then you want the outside in
G
You spin me all around
C
and then you ask me not to spin
G
You say you wanna be alone
C
and then you want children
G
You want to be with me
C
but then you want to be with him
