Am Living in the darkness G I wear it like a crown Am Oh I've got tough skin G Ready for my bow Am All I've got is two hands G I tied them in the middle Am Ready for the red tape F Open up my ribcage Am I offer souvenirs C A deaf tongue and blinded ears Em Can you fill the shelves in here F Come in, come in F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C I don't know how to fill the space G Em The invitations on the page Open up my ribcage Am I want you want to want me like I'm all you got Mama she see it but can't make me stop Telling the truth it might mean you keep poking but that didn't hurt That's my method of coping Dm Daughter sees him like that smoke in my lungs Am What they project on me what I've become Down on my knees, unsure what to say No I never learned how to pray Am Don't know know who I've been fooling C but you've got me running in circles I'm ruined Em Let you inside, opened up all my wounds F Taken my ribcage and ripped it in two F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C I don't know how to fill the space G Em The invitations on the page Open up my ribcage Am Tie it from my tendons G Watch how they stretch Am Oh I've got the muscle G Lord I'm spent Am Knocking down my sternum G Again, at a young age Am Too much space between F Open up my ribcage Am I offer souvenirs C A deaf tongue and blinded ears Em Can you fill the shelves in here F Come in, come in F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C I don't know how to fill the space G Em The invitations on the page Open up my ribcage Am There's impenetrable silence inside of my head There's nothing I can buy when I'm practically dead I get so tired of writing everything I should have said That maybe this time I'll put my pen down and just tell you instead Dm You see I opened up my ribcage and violins flew out Am The organs softly played through my violin mouth Dm I got lights hotter than love hidden beneath my tongue Am Written on my skin Tells me your the one F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C Everybody look around F C Am C I don't know how to fill the space G Em The invitations on the page Open up my ribcage Open up my ribcage Open up my ribcage Open up my ribcage
