[Intro] Em C Em
Em
There she was
C
Graciously making forever less terrifying
Em
And you've got the nerve
to intervene
C
with a coloring book and a byro and a point to prove
Em
And now you want a word

C Bm Em
And you washed all the wisdom out your mouth
C Bm Em
and the gas danced on the edge of your bottom lip
C Bm Em
Quick to scurry back behind the night
C F Em
To avoid the silent fight and the struggle
Em
There I was
C
Panicking because someone else kissed me in a dream
Em
and it was on the cheek
And you stamp your feet
C
and I'm moving from bored to appalled by these poignant fumes
Em
that you must inflict
C Bm Em
And you washed all the wisdom out your mouth
C Bm Em
and the gas danced on the edge of your bottom lip
C Bm Em
Someone told me that that stench was called advice
C F Em
Someone told me that that stench was called advice
( C F Em )
( Em )
Em
Took a solid breath
To a little rip
C
I've got to carry your broach to cover that hideous stitch
Em
All that grim repair
and we're all upset
See the fear in your cheeks
C
and I still smell the lies on your breath
Em
And your jokes don't bounce
C Em
and you've entered the early stages of bitterness

Quick to scurry back behind the night
