Tone: [Dbm]
Intro:
[Dbm]Birds of prey spiral around my [A]head
They [Dbm]hiss songs of your [B]birth, they [Db]caw visions of d[E]death
I’ve w[Dbm]watched it happen again and again, haunted by
a [Dbm]thousand kind [B]beginnings and a [Db]thousand bloodied [E]ends
I shouldn’t [Dbm]play with [Am]fat[A]fate
But what if [Dbm]once, I could [B]make you [Am]safe?[B]safe?
Chorus:
So while you [Dbm]think you’re
alone, you cast two [B]shadows down the road
Where you have [Dbm]buried all your past lives’ [B]bones
The two red [Dbm]suns in the sky blink, my [B]pity-filled eyes
Hoping the [Dbm]heartlines will c[B]change this time
If you’d [Dbm]just look up, I could [B]be your guide
Why can’t I [Dbm]catch your eye how you’ve caught [B]tеns of mine
Eye in the [Dbm]sun
You’rе all I [B]see
Why don’t you look at [Dbm]me?
Pre-Chorus:
-I’m the [Dbm]embers bright-
-Flitting [Abm]lightning flies-
-Blinks my [Dbm]eye in the sun-
-In the [Abm]hints of split sky-
-I’m the [Dbm]dying fire-
-In the [Abm]birthing light-
-And I’ll [Dbm]break every bind-
-That I’m [Abm]blighted by-
You’re [Dbm]blind to all [B]my warning [Dbm]cries [Abm]
When I speak in [Dbm]dust devils, [B]crop circles, [Dbm]flocks of mayf[B]mayflies
[Dbm]So I’ve no [B]choice but to [Dbm]come down[Abm]down
Pardon my steps shaking the ground -[Db]-HA![A]HA!-
Chorus:
So while you [Dbm]think you’re alone,
you cast two [B]shadows down the road
Where you have [Dbm]buried all your past lives’ [B]bones
The two red [Dbm]suns in the sky blink, my [B]pity-filled eyes
Hoping the [Dbm]heartlines will c[B]change this time
But the [Dbm]birds on my shoulders [B]prepare for a feast
You can [Dbm]taste it in the air, the soon-to-[B]soon-to-be dead meat
Eye in the [Dbm]sun
You’re all I [B]see
Why don’t you look at [Dbm]me?
Interlude -repeat-:
[Dbm] [B]
Bridge:
My [Dbm]breath heaves down your [Gbm]nape,
wrestlin’ you ‘[Dbm]‘way, but I’m too [Bm]late
a body [Dbm]rests, dagger in [Gbm]chest
The [Dbm]heart in your hands [Gbm]drips, as
its soul [Dbm]crawls from splintered [Bm]ribs
To eclipse my [Gbm]head and beg [Dbm]again
[Gbm]For revenge
Oh, you may [Dbm]think you’re alone if you hide from the shadows
You can [Dbm]bury bones but not the souls
And two red [Dbm]suns in the sky will
be the light to build your pyre
They’re my [Dbm]blank and pitiless eyes
Every d[Dbm]death birthes a bird to this [B]wretched flock
Forever [Dbm]tethered to your life but cursed to [B]only watch
Catastro[Dbm]Catastrophe
Repeat unt[B]until
You look at me
Outro:
-So while you [Dbm]think you’re alone,
you cast two [B]shadows down the road-
-Where you have [Dbm]buried all your past lives’ [B]bones-
[B]Look at [Dbm]me
-See my t[Dbm]two sun eyes, feel my [B]slow moving thighs-
-Tumbling [Dbm]dust in a dimming [B]tide-
[Dbm]One day I’ll [B]come reckon[Dbm]reckoning
-Hear the [Dbm]squabble angry caws of our [B]wretched flock-
-Forever [Dbm]tethered to your life but cursed to [B]only watch-
[Dbm]Wearing the [B]feathers of [Dbm]our souls as [Gb]wings
-I’m the [Dbm]embers bright-
-Flitting [B]lightning flies-
-Blinks my [Dbm]eye in the sun-
-In the [B]hints of split sky-
-I’m the [Dbm]dying fire-
-In the [B]birthing light-
-And I’ll [Dbm]break every bind-
-That I’m [B]blighted by-
-Embers [E]bright-
-Flitting [Gbm]lightning flies-
-Blinks my [B]eye in the sun-
-In the [Dbm]hints of split sky-
-I’m the [E]dying fire-
-In the [Dbm]birthing light-
-And I’ll...-
