[VERSE 1]

C#m

When all is done and turned to dust

E B F#

And insects nest inside my bones, I see

C#m

I stagger in a daze outside my tent

E B F# C#m

No time for being alone to bleed

F# B C#m

The hopeless singing of a round

F# B C#m

That much we know to do

E F#

Before we go back underground

C#m

No easy action

[VERSE 2]

C#m

Sparks fill the air some nights

E B F#

Crows look for food behind my skin beneath

C#m

Try our best to dig it in

E B F# C#m

And keep the cold away, I see

F# B C#m

That the sky is a vanishing place

F# B C#m

And that there's nothing to miss

E F#

No time to get out of the ice

C#m

No easy action

[BREAK]

Where it's good to be alone to bleed
