[Intro]
C G Am F x2
C G Am F
I got sober like a man drowning
C G Am F
like a fish breathing, like Dracula sunbathing
C G Am F
in a place where the ground itself will stab you
C G Am F
the land itself will cut you, it will kill you if it's able
C G Am F
I arrived so certain I was ready
C G Am F
but nowadays I think there is no hurry
C G Am F
to return to the anarchism of the worms
C G Am F C
without God or Master there, six feet underneath the earth
G Am F C G Am F
the anarchy of dirt
C G Am F
I keep living like a crosswire
C G Am F
like sabotage, like a lock glued shut
C G Am F
the ones like us seek each other like a brick finds glass
C G Am F
like a fascist meets a grave, like sharks to blood
C G Am F
we gather what we can of shattered selves and face each other
C G Am F
I'll let the darkness speak for me when my bones won't listen
C G Am F
'til I return to the communism of the worms
C G Am F C
without God or Master there, six feet underneath the earth
G Am F C G Am F
the commune of the dirt
C G Am F x4
C G Am F
I sleep at night like a flaming tire
C G Am F
like city traffic blocked, like bottles at police
C G Am F
I wake up and tell myself, “live like you mean it”
C G Am F
I don't know the stakes I play, but they're worth everything to me
C G Am F
and I know that you're always tired comrade
C G Am F
just hold on a bit longer and I promise that we'll sleep
C G Am F
when we return to the anarchism of the worms
C G Am F C
without God or Master there, six feet underneath the earth
G Am F C
the anarchy of dirt
G Am F C
the commune of the dirt
