Verse:
C#m                    A
I lost myself into the night
           C#m
And I flew higher
           A
Than I had ever
                   C#m
But I still felt small
                                 A
I clipped my wings and fell from flight
        C#m
To open water
            A
And floated farther
             C#m
Away from myself
C#m               E          A
And I swam in the wakes of imposters
                        G#m      C#m
Just to feel what it's like to pretend
                         E            A
There's no dreams in the lakes only monsters
                     G#m      C#m
And the monsters are my  only friends

Pre-Chorus:
C#m                    B
They're all that I was
B
And never could be


Chorus:
C#m
Eyes in the dead still water
G#m                             A
Tried but it pushed back harder
A                       B
Cauterized and atrophied
           G#m
This is my unbecoming
C#m
Knives in the backs of martyrs
G#m                         A
Lives in the burning fodder
A                       B
Cauterized and atrophied
           G#m
This is my unbecoming


Break- repeat once:
C#m C A G#m A C A G#m    C#m C A G#m A C


Verse 2:
C#m                         A
You found me drifted out to sea
         C#m
It's automatic
         A
It's telepathic
                   C#m
You always knew me
C#m                 E           A
And you laugh as I search for a harbor
                        G#m          C#m
As you point where your halo had been
C#m                    E             A
But the light in your eyes has been squandered
A
There's no angel in you in the end


Pre-Chorus:
C#m                B
And all that I was
B
I've left behind me


Chorus:
C#m
Eyes in the dead still water
G#m                             A
Tried but it pushed back harder
A                       B
Cauterized and atrophied
           G#m
This is my unbecoming
C#m
Knives in the backs of martyrs
G#m                         A
Lives in the burning fodder
A                       B
Cauterized and atrophied
           G#m
This is my unbecoming


Bridge:
A      F#m
Now I wait
         C#/E#
This metamorphosis
                        A
All that is left is the change
        F#m
Selfish fate
            C#/E#
I think you made me this
                  C#m
Under the water I wait


Instrumental:
C#m    C#m G#m A B


Chorus:
C#m
Eyes in the dead still water
G#m                             A
Tried but it pushed back harder
A                       B
Cauterized and atrophied
           G#m
This is my unbecoming
C#m
Knives in the backs of martyrs
G#m                         A
Lives in the burning fodder
A                       B
Cauterized and atrophied
           G#m
This is my unbecoming
