[ Предположительная тональность: Bm ] D G I'll bury my downcast hours in transparent ink, D G tie myself to the mast and wait here for the ship to sink Em G A G though I know I've set sail on a wishing well D G the daylight is dimming out slowly with every breath I take gasps of air become roaring rivers keeping me awake Em Bm A G it gives me no time to think things through Em Bm A G I know words always come before you do Chorus (essentially same as intro) A Bm (5-3-2-0-2-3..) but I can't find no poetry left in these lines A Bm (5-3-2-0-2-3..) I've been trying too hard, too long, too many times Bridge: D A G D A G is this what a biochemist would call happiness? is it part of some unmade promise I thought I could forget? Em Bm A Em is it time that I let some air come through? Em Bm A Em for now strangeling love is all I can do Chorus: yeah, I know you have mountains of poems in mind all explaining how all wounds will heal given time Bm E but these days are no longer my time to spill G A E and I know that by waiting, I'll make them stand still Bridge: (listen to song) A F A F C A F Bbm F C A... I kept it as close as I could through those winter nights but the ropes only tighten round me as I try to fight Em Bm A Em there's no worth throwing stone in a wishing well now I'm out of black ink and true tales to tell Chorus: and I know it's all poetry, know they're just lies but I'll still scavenge on what I find inbetween those lines Bm E I'll pretend there was happiness, fake to have felt pain G A E just to feel there's a reason to read it again
