[Verse]
E5One is for envy and one just for spite
The C5cuts in my heart, they show in your eyes
G5Don't make it better
The twisting knife turns all D5by itself, on to someone else
E5Your self-liberation will leave this behind
Beyond C5slings and arrows, bearing on our mind
DonG5't make it better
Shake it off, it never D5mattered, anyway
G5If we don't make it aD5live
It's a hell of a B5good day to E5die.
All our D5light that shines C5strong
Only D5lasts for so G5long.
G5And it's ashes to ashes aD5gain
Should we even B5try to preE5tend?
All our D5light that shines sC5trong
Only D5lasts for so G5long.
The E5banner you're waving is burning in red
It's C5blocking the sunlight, that shines overhead
G5You against the world
Diamonds and pearls, voices inD5side you churn, watch the city burn
Your E5own liberation will leave them behind
C5All the slings and arrows, bearing on your mind
G5Don't make it better
Break it 'cause it never D5mattered anyway
G5If we don't make it aD5live
It's a hell of a B5good day to E5die.
All our D5light that shines C5strong
Only D5lasts for so G5long.
G5And it's ashes to ashes aD5gain
Should we even B5try to preE5tend?
All our D5light that shines sC5trong
Only D5lasts for so E5long.
E5 C5 G5 D5
E5I wC5on'G5t cD5ome down
The E5banner you're waving
C5Is burning in red
G5You against the world, diamonds and pearls
It never D5mattered, mattered, mattered anyway
G5If we don't make it aD5live
It's a hell of a B5good day to E5die.
All our D5light that shines C5strong
Only D5lasts for so G5long.
G5And it's ashes to ashes aD5gain
Should we even B5try to preE5tend?
All our D5light that shines sC5trong
Only D5lasts for so E5long.
All our D5light that shines sC5trong
Only D5lasts for so G5long.
