Am Em Am

Touch my mouth and hold my tongue

Am Em Am

I'll never be your chosen one

F Em Am

I'll be home safe and tucked away

F

Well you can't tempt me

Em Am

If I don't see the day

Am Em Am

The pull on my flesh was just too strong

Am Em Am

Stifled the choice and the air in my lungs

F Em Am

Better not to breathe to breathe a lie

F Em Am

Cause when I open my body I breathe a lie

Am F Am Em Am G Am

I will not speak of your sin

Am F Am Em Am G Am

There was a way out for him

Am F Am Em Am G Am

The mirror shows not

Am F Am Em Am G Am

Your values are all short

Am G Am G Am G Am C F

But oh my heart was flawed I knew my weakness

So hold my hand consign me not to darkness

Am Em Am

So crawl on my belly 'til the sun goes down

Am Em Am

I'll never wear your broken crown

F Em Am

I took the road and I fucked it all away

F Em Am

Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace

Am Em Am

So crawl on my belly 'til the sun goes down

I'll never wear your broken crown

I took the road and I fucked it all away

F Em Am

Now in this twilight how dare you speak of grace

Am Em Am

So crawl on my belly 'til the sun goes down

Am Em Am

I'll never wear your broken crown

F Em Am

I can take the road and I can fuck it all away

F Em Am

But in this twilight our choices seal our fate
