1. Make Light

Intro: G+G

Verse 1:
G+G
So now we see
G7G7
Comes burying my burnt remains
G7G7
These puddled clouds
  G+G
Oh I, I understand now
G+G
But darkness falls likes shattered pieces
G7G7
Dangling, shimmering
           G6G6
Torn and tattered yet crowned
G+G
Oh I'll not be told "No" to "No More!"

Refrain: G+G

Verse 2:
G+G
You must believe to hear me sing these
G6G6
Messy morsels of my self-assuring love
G+G
Oh it's painful kneading
G+G
Yes, I lie and I wrangle with prospective angles
G6G6
That glare me down and face me with all I do wrong
G+G
Why do they all look like me?

Chorus:
G+G
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
E minorEm
Just to prove I'm alive

Of my treacherous life

Refrain:

Verse 3:
G+G
If I had hands I'd hold up high
  G6G6
My lofty dreams and my alibi's real name
G+G
But I have no strength
G+G
So I toss and I turn and I spit in the urn
G7G7
There's a ghost in your eye
G6G6
There is someone that knows more than I
          G+G
But I'm quick to deny

Chorus:
G+G
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
E minorEm
Just to prove I'm alive
A minorAm
And it's alright

Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light

Of my treacherous life

    DmDm

Verse 1:
Bb majorBb
When I came down the dawn poured into me
Bb majorBb
I shook 'em up, the walls came crumbling
Bb majorBb
My thin skin trembling with these salty wounds
Bb majorBb
My stolen gold inside the emperors tomb
Bb majorBb
Now painting rainbows on my ugly face
Bb majorBb
I built this cardboard neighborhood's disgrace
Bb majorBb
But I ascend and serve my feverish need
Bb majorBb
Within the confines of such chemistry

Everything I need

Bb majorBb
My face blew up at such a casual sight
Bb majorBb
The smattered colors of ecstatic fright
Bb majorBb
The rush above me to oblivion
Bb majorBb
Outlining wet sidewalks with halogen
Bb majorBb
Oh have you ever felt so goddamned strong?
Bb majorBb
How come it takes some people so damn long
Bb majorBb
He turned to squeeze the lemon juice to rain
Bb majorBb
The citrus drawing out the scene it stains

Pre-Chorus:
Bb majorBb
Watch the basin drain
DmDm
As your life lines wane
C majorC
And you cant explain
Bb majorBb
As your friends complain
Bb majorBb
You've caused all this pain
DmDm
And you proudly shame
C majorC
Your whole family's name

Let this be our little secret

No one needs to know we're feeling

Mother I can tell what you've been thinking
C majorC
staring at the stars on your ceiling

Thinking once there was a power that you were wielding

And now I've hit the mark
A minorAm
Stabbing at the dark

And I cannot help but ignore the people staring at my scars

A augmentedA smoky figure fills me full,

My family kneels at their pew,

The western landscapes towering,

The flowers blossom for picking.

Bridge:
N.C.
I've waited and waited for someone to take it.
N.C.
Don't fight it, don't bother an inch for another.
N.C.
Don't listen, don't hear them, they're in this together.
N.C.
I 've learned well, now hear me, there's much to be fearing.
N.C.
I'm used to your absence, your faceless distraction.
   Cmaj7Cmaj7
I've painted your patterns but found them attractive.
  E minor 7Em7
Now I have been leaning towards a life far more candid,
D MajorD
Though led through the dark with your eyes as my candles,
   E minor 7Em7
Where your life, and my life, directions can wrangle.
  Cmaj7Cmaj7
And all of a sudden you've left me to handle
  E minor 7Em7
The reasons that never forbid me to stand tall.
D MajorD
And somehow or somewhere I found out the secret -
  E minor 7Em7
To sting alive without actually breathing.
