CHold the way you're feeling
Put a robe on everytGhing

Instead of holding me Gas king

CNotice your reflection, it's your fGace

[Intro]

C G

[Verse 1]

Hold the way you're feeling

Put a robe on everything

And it ain't right, but you crown emotion

Instead of holding me as king

It's only thin, it's only paint

It didn't make or give your name

C G

Notice your reflection, it's your face

[Chorus]

Amen, make amends

Makeshift, break and bend

Am G C G

Time you will not spend low

[Verse 2]

Drench yourself with violet

You're busy seeking other things

I don't know why, but honesty rarely

Honestly makes it back to me

I haven't left, you haven't tried

I haven't changed, and I won't tonight

C G

Sit and talk, stay with me, it's alright

[Chorus]

Amen, make amends

Makeshift, break and bend

Am G C G C G

Time you will not spend low

Amen, make amends

Makeshift, break and bend

Am G C G

Time you will not spend low

[Outro]

I never fall outside of love
