Rhythm tips ↓-↓↑-↑↓↑

[E]Tell me again about how it hurts. [Am]Being awfully loud for an introvert. [E]Get out of my room, smile wiped clean. [Am]Isn’t it weird to be so mean?

[E]I’m guessing that I’ve grown horns. [E]I guess I’m human no more. [Am]I can tell I’ve rotted in your brain. Oh, [E]how easily passion twists. [E]You think I’m a crazy bitch. [Am]I craft my words to fit your head. ‘Cause [C]no one listens [D]to the dead.

[E]So maybe I will talk to you. [E7]The only way I know how to. [A]Mhm, I’ve said my speech. [A]Mhm, through sharpened teeth. [Am]You break the rules and spikes grow from your [C]skin. Please [D]let the devil in.

[E]A meter apart, we blankly stare. [Am]We shout in our heads, “Are you still in there?” [E]Well this ends bad then, we knew it would. [Am]So we won’t eat our words, ’cause they don’t taste good.

[E]Oh, I think it might be worth a try. [E7]Oh, am I ready to let this die? [A]Mhm, a monster’s here. [A]Mhm, you plug your ears. [Am]But hey, you might just listen to it [C]sing. Please [D]let the devil in.

[E]We won’t eat our [E7]words. [A]They don’t taste so [Am]good. [E]We won’t eat our [E7]words. [A]They don’t taste so [Am]good.

[E]Look, we know that I’ve seen this before. [E7]High and mighty, at the top of your list. [A]Adoring every move, now my rank is sinking. [Am]But we’re both guilty of black or white thinking. [E]And through my red eyes, you look pale. [E7]All of your scars are looking more like scales. [A]Two ugly creatures, two sinister preachers. [Am]Blind to the past, like a couple of monsters. Just a couple of monsters!

[E]So maybe I will talk to you. [E7]The only way I know how to. [A]Mhm, I’ve said my speech. [A]Mhm, through sharpened teeth. [Am]You break the rules and spikes grow from your [C]skin.

[E]We won’t eat our [E7]words. [A]They don’t taste so [Am]good. [E]We won’t eat our [E7]words. [A]They don’t taste so [Am]good… [E]
