[Verse]
E A E
Cold had I calloused
Am E Esus2 E A
Walls were raised to bear the weight
E
I'd not take
A E
Too slow were my senses
Am E Esus2 E A
Muted musings lost their way
D A
Disconnected
Dm A
Only silence remained
D A E
Holding my breath in the dark
B
Gasping for air
E
With the lungs of a lark
A E
So warm was the welcome
Am E
Humble in its embrace
B E A
Tell me just how did you save me?
D A
Pull me up from the grave
Dm A
Though my youth did mislead
D A E
I would retreat to you
A
Right back to your arms
D A
With my spirit aglow
Dm A
Where the pains of the past
D A E
Exit en masse through you
B
Too lost when we part
E
With the lungs of a lark
[Bridge]
B
I (far removed from myself)
A E
Had denied what I lost
F#m E B
When my heart had withdrawn to the fray (In a whimsical way)
A E
I would flee from the truth
F#m E
I could bury in youth
B
You (you would have me)
A E
You would have me if I've fallen again
F#m E B
Would you bring me back out of the dark?
E
With my lungs of a lark
[Outro]
E A E
Cold. Have I calloused
Am E Esus2 E
But these walls are coming down
