[Verse]
Am G F E
Break me in, teach us to cheat
Am G F E
And to lie, and cover up what shouldn't be shared
Am G F E
And the truth's unwinding, scraping away
Am G F E
At my mind Please stop asking me to describe
[Chorus]
F C E
For one mo-ment
Am G F C
I wish you'd hold your stage
E
With no feelings at all
F C E
Open-mind-ed
Am G F C E
I'm sure I us-ed to be so free
[Verse]
Am G
Self-expressed
F E Am G
Exhausting for all to see and to be
F E
What you want and what you need
Am G
And the truth's unwinding
F E Am
Scraping away at my mind
G F E
Please stop asking me to describe
[Chorus]
F C E
For one mo-ment
Am G F C
I wish you'd hold your stage
E
With no feelings at all
F C E
Open-mind-ed
Am G F C E
I'm sure I us-ed to be so free
F C E
For one mo-ment
Am G F C
I wish you'd hold your stage
E
With no feelings at all
F C E
Open-mind-ed
Am G F C E
I'm sure I us-ed to be so free
