Track Info

[Intro]
F Dm
F Dm
F Dm
F Dm
[Verse]
F Burrow your head and

kill all the lights
Dm The cockroaches bury

their dead in the night
F Give birth again,

all the thoughts in your head
C Bb F Haunt you again and again C Bb F In the morning they find you again F Walking around with your hands

at your side with your
Dm Eyes on the road and

your thoughts in the sky
F And you'd just end it all for

a second of quiet
C Bb F They whisper and moan again C Bb F They burrow a home again [Chorus]
G Cupid's arrow is

now lodged in your spine
Bb Making every move that you make just
F Dm
a bit out of time
F Dm Time G Retrograde, petrol run empty,

I'm dry
Bb And I'm crawling and
A5
I'm just running more
G#5 G5 F#5
and more be-
F Dm F Dm -hind F Dm F Dm (Woah) [Verse]
F Stubborn steel boots,

heavy chains at my feet
Dm With the rain in my clothes and

the blistering heat
F And I'd give anything just to

lay down and die
C Bb Yet I get up and I try C Bb To push and to stay alive F Melodies trapped in
Dm
the spaces inside of my
F Dm Brain where the creatures lie dormant and hide F And they come out to play at
Dm
the end of the day
C Bb F When I'm trying to close my eyes C Bb F They scream and they whimper and cry [Chorus]
G Cupid's arrow is

now lodged in your spine
Bb Making every move that you make
F Dm
just a bit out of time
F Dm Time G Retrograde,

petrol run empty, I'm dry
Bb And I'm crawling and
A5
I'm just running more
G#5 G5 F#5 N.C.
and more be-
(A moment of ambiguous chaos) F Bb F Bb -hind F Bb F Bb (Woah) F Bb F Bb F Bb F Dm (Yeah!)
