Written by Dime Store Prophets
Em C
Someone left the window open,
D Dsus D C G C G
and cold air's slowly creepin' in
Em C
I'm sitting watching TV sitcoms,
D Dsus D C G C G
where everyone is happy in the end
Em C
And I'm beginning to believe it
D Dsus D C G C G
Some say we can get by without the help of a friend
Em C
And I'm lying here, I'm remotely controlled
Em C
Strapped to an engine stuck on idle
Em C
I don't feel 'cause I fear, don't love 'cause I lost
(don't know, don't want to know)
G D Em C G
I'm not myself 'til you are you...if I close my eyes, I'm killing you
D Em
I carry the weight of this safety net, so
C G C G C G C G
I feel like Hitler's girlfriend...I'm blind to this and numb to that
Em C D Dsus D C G C G
I know a girl who draws happy faces on everything she writes
Em C
She doesn't fool me...
D Dsus D C G C G
I've seen her bag of troubles, and it's not light
Em C
Don't you know I want to reach out, cry for her
D Dsus D C G C G
Carry the weight, but something just won't let me leave the couch
Em C
There's a scream and a chain and a knife
And her head is full of spirits
Em C Em C
I don't get too close, might get what she got
(my foot is asleep)
Chorus
D B7 C
I was sprawled out at the foot of my bed with a rage of fire
Goin' 'round in my head...and I said,
D B7 C D
"Could this be the salt of the earth in my tears?"
Em C
I was watching Miss Brown, some say she didn't know
Em C
Just took another Judas' kiss now
Em C
Well I'm not blaming you...was there something you could do?
(my coffee's cold)
Chorus 2x (2nd ending changes slightly)
C G
I'm blind to this and numb to that
