[Chorus]
FI am out for a waGlk
And I wCill not be back till they're staining my skAmin
FThis is how I chose to taGlk
With some vCiolent hits, violet blossoms akAmin
FEvery night I do waGlk
And if tChey're looking down I'm offering my chAmin
FThis is how I chose to taGlk
With some vCiolent hits, violet blossoms akAmin
[Verse 1]
TherFe's a way to truGly be seCen
By furiously Amskimming iFn
Forget the jewelGs, I'm liviCd
Veins are shutting out fine on their AmownF  
Blood on my cheekGs, birds come bCy
One of my stAmomps and they flFy
People polGitely smiCle to make sure I won't come any Amcloser
[Chorus]
FI am out for a waGlk
And I wCill not be back till they're staining my skAmin
FThis is how I chose to taGlk
With some vCiolent hits, violet blossoms akAmin
FEvery night I do waGlk
And if tChey're looking down I'm offering my chAmin
FThis is how I chose to taGlk
With some vCiolent hits, violet blossoms akAmin
[Verse 2]
Now Fa swollen eGye is four daCys
Of curious caAmlm, snow in MaFy
Way better oGff on my oCwn
Since no one cries there's no one to AmblameF  
It hurts, I feel GeverythinCg
As my sense of self'Ams wearing thiFn
                        GN.C.
Such pains can be a delight
                                  N.C.
Far from when I could drown in my shame
[Chorus]
FI am out for a waGlk
And I wCill not be back till they're staining my skAmin
FThis is how I chose to taGlk
With some vCiolent hits, violet blossoms akAmin
FEvery night I do waGlk
And if tChey're looking down I'm offering my chAmin
FThis is how I chose to taGlk
With some vCiolent hits, violet blossoms akAmin
[Post-Chorus]
Say Fnow

[Chorus]

F G

I am out for a walk

C Am

And I will not be back till they're staining my skin

F G

This is how I chose to talk

C Am

With some violent hits, violet blossoms akin

F G

Every night I do walk

C Am

And if they're looking down I'm offering my chin

F G

This is how I chose to talk

C Am

With some violent hits, violet blossoms akin

[Verse 1]

F G C

There's a way to truly be seen

Am F

By furiously skimming in

G C

Forget the jewels, I'm livid

Am F

Veins are shutting out fine on their own

G C

Blood on my cheeks, birds come by

Am F

One of my stomps and they fly

G C Am

People politely smile to make sure I won't come any closer

[Chorus]

F G

I am out for a walk

C Am

And I will not be back till they're staining my skin

F G

This is how I chose to talk

C Am

With some violent hits, violet blossoms akin

F G

Every night I do walk

C Am

And if they're looking down I'm offering my chin

F G

This is how I chose to talk

C Am

With some violent hits, violet blossoms akin

[Verse 2]

F G C

Now a swollen eye is four days

Am F

Of curious calm, snow in May

G C

Way better off on my own

Am F

Since no one cries there's no one to blame

G C

It hurts, I feel everything

Am F

As my sense of self's wearing thin

N.C.

Such pains can be a delight

N.C.

Far from when I could drown in my shame

[Chorus]

F G

I am out for a walk

C Am

And I will not be back till they're staining my skin

F G

This is how I chose to talk

C Am

With some violent hits, violet blossoms akin

Every night I do walk

C Am

And if they're looking down I'm offering my chin

F G

This is how I chose to talk

C Am

With some violent hits, violet blossoms akin

[Post-Chorus]

Say now

(I chose to talk)

C Am

(violent hits, blossoms akin)

Say now

(I chose to talk)

C Am

(violent hits, blossoms akin)

Say hun hun hun

(I chose to talk)

C Am

(violent hits, blossoms akin)

[Outro]

Say now

(I chose to talk)

C Am

(violent hits, blossoms akin)
