Intro : C5 Bb5 F5 G#5 C5 Bb5 F5 G#5 C5 Bb5 F5 G#5
C5Sharp and open, Bb5leave me alone
And F5sleeping less every G#5night

Waiting F5in the cold light G#5
A noise, a C5scream tears my clothes as the Bb5figurines tighten F5

And dust on the C5lips of a vision of Bb5hell
I laughed in the F5mirror for the G#5first time in a year.
C5 Bb5 F5 G#5 }*2 (with Rhythm Figure 1)
A C5hundred other words Bb5blind me with your F5purity G#5
Like an C5old painted doll in the Bb5throes of dance

Lose me in the dark
Please do it F5right G#5
