C majorC            E minorEm    D MajorD
Pry the darkness from my eyes.
C majorC        A minorAm     B minorBm
Divided, let the light seep in.
C majorC                  E minorEm     D MajorD
Trees devoid of branches and hollow hives.
C majorC          A minorAm  E minorEm  B minorBm
An endless black and empty beds.

C majorC         A minorAm
It's not the same, something's changed.
E minorEm         D MajorD          C majorC
I never used to be able to see past the trees.
      A minorAm   E minorEm             B minorBm       E minorEm  B minorBm  Am(drums)
A augmentedA thousand unfamiliars are lying thick on the air and I can't breathe.

C majorC               A minorAm        E minorEm      D MajorD
Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in?

This doesn't look like home; this doesn't look like home.

I'll tear apart the town then sleep, and sleep alone.

E minorEm                C majorC        A minorAm              E minorEm
If I'm a flame, I'm a forest fire speaking savage tongues as I emerge from the hills.
          C majorC
I am an avalanche, I am unchained.
A minorAm            C majorC
I'm awoken, I'll unleash hell.
   A minorAm         E minorEm         D MajorD         C majorC  A minorAm        E minorEm  B minorBm
So I roar, pin back my ears, and stone by stone I'll tear it all, I'll tear it apart.

C majorC               A minorAm        E minorEm      D MajorD
Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in?

This doesn't look like home; this doesn't look like home.

Is our skin to keep the world out or our bodies in?
            D MajorD

      D MajorD         E minorEm
I've lost faith, the forest's changed.
       G+G         C majorC
My stomach's empty, I'm feeling faint.
     D MajorD          E minorEm
I've lost heart, the forest's scarred.

I hear no birds, just TVs and cars.
     D MajorD          E minorEm
I've lost faith, the forest's changed.
       G+G         C majorC

     D MajorD          E minorEm
I've lost sight, the forest's died.
         G+G          C majorC
The brambles are bare, and I'm hollow inside.
      D MajorD            E minorEm G+G C majorC      D MajorD            E minorEm  G+G  A minorAm
Each breath rattles like dice in my chest, each breath gambled, unwinding till death.
