[Intro]
Cm* Cm* Eb* Eb* Gm* Gm* Dm*
 
[Verse 1]
          Cm*            Eb*         Gm*           Dm*
There’s a boy here lying quiet in my shadow like a prayer
   Cm*              Eb*        Gm*            Dm*
He drips from every angle into colours that I wear
   Cm*            Eb*           Gm*        Dm*
He wanders like a saint on predatory pilgrimage
       Cm*           Eb*              Gm*              Dm*
With a grimace and a limp he puts his wrist against my cartilage
 
    Cm          Eb                Gm                Dm
And I could separate these bones, I could pack them into prose
   Cm             Eb           Gm            Dm
Or I could hold a cancer in my soul until it overflows
    Cm            Eb              Gm                Dm
But there is only boy and breath, gentle handprints on my chest
Cm              Eb                Gm**         Dm*
Mouthing little darling, deepest, loveliest of sacrilege
 
     Cm  Eb Gm     Dm
This boy of filth, he’s
Cm   Eb Gm    Dm
Born of gods, he
Cm       Eb    Gm     Dm
Clutches at my flaws, he
Cm       Eb      Gm** Dm*
Drags me from my holo-caust
   Cm    Eb Gm     Dm
He takes my limbs, he
Cm         Eb     Gm   Dm
Wraps them around him, he
Cm       Eb        Gm       Dm
Takes my shake and takes my sick
    Cm       Eb        Gm** Dm*
And feeds me bread and then
 
[Chorus]
      Cm                Eb                     Gm          Dm             Cm
These violent wall eyed dreams that mite their way into my fear of me and mine
                Eb           Gm                 Dm                  Cm
These wines and sugars in my blood they mutter "Take your claws and climb
            Eb              Gm                   Dm            Cm
The inch of every pale moon love, you once swore you’d pay nevermind"
          Eb             Gm**            Dm*
When I am on the side of you, I’d say my gods were always
Cm Eb Gm Dm

C Eb Gm** Dm*
 
[Verse 2]
          Cm*         Eb*               Gm*    Dm*
There’s a girl pacing around me, proselytizing parasite
    Cm*          Eb*       Gm*               Dm*
Her sick, acidic logic ridicules the ancient rite
    Cm*                  Eb*           Gm*            Dm*
And when her teeth break up on me like tiny cliffs of chalk
  Cm*            Eb*              Gm*          Dm*
I crash into her canyon, lick the injuries she likes to mock
 
    Cm              Eb                 Gm               Dm
And I could cut her down to size, it’s half as hard as compromise
   Cm              Eb                Gm                  Dm
Or I could watch a blind sleepwalker creep all sweet and none-the-wise
    Cm            Eb             Gm           Dm
But there is only girl and grin, curling up under my skin
Cm              Eb           Gm**           Dm*
Picture you and I forgetting why we let the other in
 
     Cm    Eb Gm    Dm
This judge of what, she’s
Cm   Eb Gm   Dm
Born of mud, she
Cm      Eb    Gm     Dm
Answers to no blood, she
Cm       Eb     Gm**     Dm*
Will not let me chew the cud
    Cm    Eb  Gm      Dm
She spits and swells, she
Cm        Eb       Gm    Dm
Wears her wretched well, she
Cm       Eb        Gm     Dm
Holds my soul with taxes, tolls
    Cm       Eb          Gm** Dm*
And takes it straight to hell
 
[Chorus]
      Cm                Eb                     Gm          Dm             Cm
These violent wall eyed dreams that mite their way into my fear of me and mine
                Eb           Gm                 Dm                  Cm
These wines and sugars in my blood they mutter “Take your claws and climb
            Eb           Gm                  Dm          Cm
The inch of every rotten hate, I once swore "I’d pay nevermind"
          Eb             Gm                  Dm
When I am on the side of you, you’d say your law was always
Cm Eb Gm*** Dm*
Ly-ing
 
[Outro]
                    Cm Eb Gm Dm*
Your law it must be ly-ing
                      Cm Eb Gm Dm
My gods, they must be ly-ing
Cm Eb Gm** Dm* Fmaj7
Ly-ing
