[Intro]
B E D#m C#m
[Verse 1]
C#m B
Sing for me, cause you don't have a chance.
G#m B
All your little words and war stories advance.
G#m B
Sell your skin, elements on trial,
E G#m
Deliver your unconscious state of mind.
D#m C#m
All my silent superstitions wrap around you like the coast.
B E
If I'm wide awake then why do I feel your ghost?
[Chorus]
B E
Oh the bitter sea of Brooklyn left me bare,
D#m C#m
Still your heart it never conquered me like that.
B E
And the more my body tells me I'm entranced,
D#m C#m
The deeper in your quicksand I'll descend.
[Verse 2]
G#m B
Talk to me, only with your eyes.
E G#m
Every bottled up decision intertwined.
G#m B
Colors change faster than you can.
E G#m
Still you bother to dilute the task at hand.
D#m C#m
All my silent superstitions wrap around you like the coast.
B E
If I'm wide awake then why do I feel your ghost?
[Chorus]
B E
Oh the bitter sea of Brooklyn left me bare,
D#m C#m
Still your heart it never conquered me like that.
B E
And the more my body tells me I'm entranced,
D#m C#m
The deeper in your quicksand I'll descend.
G#m B
All my enemies are thoughts I never left,
E B
And the sickness that I've felt is only surface.
D#m B
All the armor that I buried in my breath
E D#m C#m B
I’ve spent it all.
E D#m C#m
I’ve spent it all.
B E D#m C#m
[Chorus]
B E
Oh the bitter sea of Brooklyn left me bare,
D#m C#m
Still your heart it never conquered me like that.
B E
And the more my body tells me I'm entranced,
D#m C#m B
The deeper in your quicksand I'll descend.
