D#m
Help me when I'm at a loss for words
                F#
Bring up all my memories folder please,
in the temporal lobe
      D#m
False lovin' when I was illogical
                 F#
Didn't know they had each other's
hands as they made one whole

D#m
Brainstem yells temperature
                                   F#
Arise now, sweat raindrops down my silky flesh
Buttering up my consciousness
  D#m
Cook now
Ability to sleep sound throughout the star
        F#
Time's an illusion if you just remove it

Chorus:
 D#m
When did humans start to separate
                            F#
Brain and heart as if they could stay alive alone?
Flip it around the other way
 D#m
If they were apart and you had no power,
            F#
start, or no database
F#
Only your shell remains
     D#m
What fun is it to be so calculated
      F#
Or be taken advantage of
'cause your heart's too trusting?
  D#m
Silent expressed, push my head into my chest
          F#
Bind them up, forever wed
"Don't drift too far”, they said

Help me when I'm too detached and cold
Give me the vitality that I need to trust love more
Blood to the water, neither can fuel us alone
Fervency in my arteries,
passion bloomin' through my bones

Heartstrings trigger emotions, dreams
Agape love's a journey, red rivers connect all of me
B-b-beat steadfast, don't you disappoint me
Sometimes I think you're all I need
Wise beyond belief

Chorus
