HIT THE LIGHTS
Back Breaker

--------------------

VERSE

D
I've been carving down the days on my bedroom door

Teeth are all but gone
G
Taking a beating, from grinding when I'm sleeping
D
I've busted out the boards on my window sill
                   G
Nails tried keep me here I'm dying
                                                  Bm
But nothing can stop me from trying
                      A               
To crawl my way out this grave
G
Before I decay
        A
I will make a clean break

CHORUS

D                                               G
And burn it down, I'll burn this town behind me

And run until I can't breathe
D
I'm breaking out
                     G
I'll bury all my mistakes

And rebuild until my back breaks

VERSE

D
Consider them convinced I'm a lunatic
                          G
Eyes are wide and crazed

I feel it happen, oh they can have it
D
Send a stack of bricks through the neighbors house
                            G
Watch them as they spill into the yard
                                            Bm
They don't know how lucky they are
                       A
They swiped the vultures aside
G                            A
I swear they're alive, boy just look in their eyes

CHORUS (same)

MIDDLE 8

Bm                      G
On my gravestone for all to see, it reads
A
"I took this city out

At the knees at least"
Bm
On your gravestone
G                                        A
Covered in leaves they'll read nothing more than

"Rest In, Rest In Peace"
D
Nothing more than...nothing more than
G
Nothing more than...nothing more than

CHORUS
