D              Am
Eyes blue and hollow
       C                   Bm
As it rains against their will
D                          Am
Feathers falling out of a pillow
C                     Bm
As if time's standing still

  Em                         E
I can't remember much more
                        Am   Am/G
But I know it happened quiet
     D/F#
So quiet

Chorus:
Em            Bm              Am  Bm
Words falling out through the window
Em         Bm          C       D
All that remains is a silent call
        G            Bm
Is the earth colored red?
      Em           C             Am
As I land like a flower on the meadow
Em    Bm Em
Love is wild

You fell apart
Like a stone can be broken into sand
A thousand pieces
Spread across a crying land

And you can't remember that day
But you know it happened quiet
So quiet

Chorus

           Bm           C
Are your dreams as dead as they seem?
           Bm           C
Are your dreams as dead as they seem?

Chorus:
Don't you speak over my voice
I will return from the shadows
And I'll bleed in your bed, turn it red
Like the ground outside your window
Love is wild

Love is wild
Love is wild
Love is wild
Love is wild
