DI'm a lord, I'm apostle, I'm a plague
BmI'm the cruel part of life's sleight of Ghand
DI am drool, I am your coffin, I am your plea
BmI'm the person you never wanted to GbeF  D  
EmI'll be your eyes in your sockets, I'm your slave
A7I'll break what's left of you and hide it away
BmI'm a cruel cold-hearted waste of sGpace
Now let me sGmleep so I can slip awDay
DI am a knife counting my footsteps from your wound
BmI'm the cross stitch that will take you to the mGoon
DI am a man, I have a purpose, I am your key
BmWon't you lay here, won't you stay here witGh me?
