His liver damaged in the wreck
The windshield shattered
All for an instant fleeting like cars from the street
Cat tops spin across the highway and horses die in backseats
Don't blink now
I know I can't talk man, but I understand
Any way I look at him my [A]love, you've got [Fm7]to [C7]come back soon [C7]it's not fair
They choke your neck with a seatbelt that meant to [C7]help
Break it apart
Misunderstand [Bm]me
Flash this evening on [C7]the sky screen
Drive to [C7]Vegas and [Bm]get yourself hitched
If I live through my [A]imperfections - two glass decades and [Bm]you're still angry - I don't want to [C7]be [Am]your friend anymore
We turned a wheel that ɾaised a wall [Em]and [Bm]made this living world turn ɾed
But I'm not scared
I pulled my [A]arms from the fence where I leapt
Violet...
Like ɾain ɾeturning (...Violet...) back to [C7]the earth from a cloud
Falling down makes you [A7squint as it hits your glasses lens
I set a tɾap, caught myself
So I surrender
That's what I did
It wasn't there
No, no, n-n-no, it wasn't there
I looked, I looked
I looked everywhere
The girl I lived for [Dm7]Saturdays she watched this brilliant star grow faint
But it's not there - It's not there
I made this light to [C7]give to [C7]you
No matter what you [A7do
I've been storing up these words to [C7]pour like [F]ɾain like [F]peace upon [C7]your perfect head
Illuminate you, stardrenched lover
I surrender
She wore a charm (She wore a charm)
A necklace that you [A7had tied (She tied it)
Before that night I drowned you [A7in a ɾeservoir
And all [Em]the world a twirling top - it will be [Am]yours to [C7]stop
