Pierce The Veil - 'Phantom Power And Ludicrous Speed'
Album: Misadventures
[Intro]
C#m B F#m
I'm mastering the art of miracles and flawless tragedies
C#m B
In here I spend everyday in captivity
F#m
Devoured while the walls grow hands and teeth
[Verse 1]
C#m E
I cried and listened to the rain in a rental car
A C#m
And one day somebody's gonna go and get pushed too far
E
But now I don't know what to say
F#m
Shall I deny my lungs their breathing rights?
Abm C#m
So give it up, give it up
A E
Don't let your mind slip away
C#m
Don't drink, don't get so high
Ab
Your beat's too obvious
Abm
Not gonna say what you want me to say
C#m
I guess you're right...
[Bridge]
C# E F#m
The less you're seen, the less you are
E
But I don't even care anymore
[Chorus]
A F#m
Anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend
E
I won't pay for sanity, 'cause I don't want to know
Abm
Some things are better left alone
E A
But thanks for your concern and calls
[Verse 2]
C#m E F#m
I'd put a bullet in my head if I ever lost you now
F#m
Never even owned a bed
A C#m
Just a blood red couch
Abm
You think you're getting the best of me
D Ab
Disarm this smoke alarm
[Pre-Chorus]
C#m B F#m
Fuck you, no one is gonna ruin all our fun
A C#m B F#m
All that we want is this temporary release and distraction
[Chorus]
E F#m
Anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend
E
I won't pay for sanity, 'cause I don't wanna know
Ab
Some things are better left alone
A
It seems
[Bridge]
E
Are you out there?
Ab A
I'm not everything you wanted me to be
E Am
I suggest you pray for a full recovery
C#
A full recovery
Your words were written in
F#
Your words were written in
C#
Cold blood
C#m C#
C#m C# C#m
Now
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F#m C#m E
Even with phantom power and ludicrous speed
F#m A E A
I can't run because betrayal won't come from my enemies
[Chorus]
F#
Anatomy of a ghost, invisible friend
E
They pay for sanity so
Ab Abm
Baby here's a toast to things much better left alone
[Verse 3]
A F#m
It seems
E Abm A E
I'm not everything you wanted me to be
Abm C#m
In a dream on the way to the hospital I slip away
B A
F#
B F#m
What's happening to me?
B E A F#
C#m
[Outro]
C#m
And as you drag the lake
B A F#m
Pull me out do you feel the shame inside you
C#m B A
And as my body lays before you now, do you feel my skin?
F#
It's cold
B#m C#
