Am G Dm Fmaj7 I chose an eternity of this Am G Dm Fmaj7 Like falling angels the world disappeared Am G Dm Fmaj7 Laughing into the fire, is it always like this? Am G Flesh and blood and the first kiss Dm Fmaj7 The first colors the first kiss. We writhed under a red light Voodoo smile, Siamese twins Girl at the window looks at me for an hour Then everything falls apart Broken inside me, it falls apart Chorus: C Dm Am The walls and the ceiling move in time C Dm Push a blade into my hands, slowly up the stairs E And into the room Is it always like this Am Fmaj7 Dancing in my pocket Am Fmaj7 Worms eat my skin Am G She glows and grows with arms outstretched F Her legs around me, in the morning I cried. Leave me to die, you won't remember my voice I walked away and grew old You never talk, we never smile I scream "you're nothing I don't need you any more, you're nothing" Chorus: C Dm Am Sing out loud we all die C Dm Laughing into the fire E A# Is it always like this? E A# Is it always like this? E Is it always like this?
