[Verse]
Em
You say you’re gonna help me
A
I see things in a way that’s too real
Em A
I really wanna trust you but I know you already made my deal
Em F#m A
I’ve been driving all night, been running from the truth
Em G
And I’m stuck down in Rosemead trying to cut loose
[Solo]

Em A
You’ve got all your believers
D Em G A
Your water’s running blue but your hands are stained in red
Em A G
Somehow I believe you but I know you manipulate the truth
Em G A G
The weight is getting heavy and I don’t know what I should do
Em G A
You got me wrapped up somehow I’m so confused
A Em
But if you lead me to the fire I’m gonna light the fuse
Em G A Em D A
A shrine for believers to hide what you can’t escape

You say ‘let me slip into your deepest dream and I will show you love’
