C E I still taste it's kiss, that dull hook in my lip G Am is a memory as useless as a rod without a reel C E to an anchor-ever-dropped-seasick-yet-still-docked Am captain spotted napping with his first mate at the wheel C E floating forgetfully along, with no need to be strong G Am we keep our confessions long and when we pray we keep them short C E I drank a thimbleful of fire, I'm not ever coming back Am Oh my god! C E "I do not exist" we faithfully insist G Am while watching sink the heavy ship of everything we knew C E if ever you come near I'll hold up high a mirror Lord, I could never show you anything as beautiful as you!
