Intro 

Em  D 
Em  D 


[Verso 1]


Em                                         D 
I dreamt the sky had something more to say 
Em                                         D 
 But bit my tongue and I turned away 
C                                          D 
 The stars were low and the veil was thin 
Em                                         D 
 I traced the smoke and breathed it in 


[Verso 2]


Em                                             D 
 The door was cracked and the light was wrong 
Em                                         D 
 A hush too steeped in its sacred song 
C                                      D 
 I stood where no one dares to sleep 
Em                                             D 
 My shadow stretched and my skin went deep 


[Refrão]

G            D 
 The silence leaned, I did not 
Em 
fall 


[Verso 3]


Em                                        D 
 The floor was warm but out of phase 
Em                                        D 
 Like dreaming through the electric haze 
C                                        D 
 The hallway curved, I held my breath 
Em                                D 
 As if I'd wake someone in death 


[Verso 4]


Em                         D 
 A filament behind my eye 
Em                              D 
 Began to twitch, began to lie 
C                                     D 
 I knew the step and I knew the call 
Em                                   D 
 But something in me said not all 

Chorus 2 
G             D 
 The air went thin, I stayed too 
Em 
long 


[Verso 5]


Em                                        D 
 My hand reached out but touched no door 
Em                                        D 
 The shape was gone and the line unsure 
C                                         D 
 A voice said now but it meant not yet 
Em                                        D 
 I held the dark and tried to forget 


[Verso 6]


Em                                    D 
 The stars hummed low beneath my feet 
Em                                    D 
 My breath a loop I can not complete 
C                                     D 
 I know the step and I feel the fall 
Em                                    D 
 But still I want to lose it all 


[Refrão]

G         D 
 I almost move but somethings wrong. 
G         D 
 I almost speak but not for long 
G            D 
 The silence leans but Im not yet gone 

Solo 
Em       D 
Em       D 
Em       D 
Em       D 
Em       D 


[Verso 7]


Em                                        D 
 The light bends slow, like sleep undone 
Em                                        D 
  A thought half-formed, a breath not run 
C                                       D 
  A hush that builds behind my spine 
Em                                  D 
  The fall begins, but it is not mine
