[G#]
[Bm]
This is [F#m] my darkness.
[F#] This is my world.
[B]
[A] I breathe and I stop.
[F#] Because the [B] truth must be told.
I killed him.
I killed him.
For [D] he saw me from the other side.
For who I was.
[G] [Bm] I'll start from the beginning.
I couldn't sleep for a [D] million nights.
[G] The radio kept [Bm] playing the same song [D] over and over and over [G] and over.
[Bm] The only thing that kept me [G] safe.
[D] They kept them away.
[G] My nocturnal [Bm] sonic.
My song.
[G] The [D] light of night, [G]
[Bm] all night, [B] night light.
[A] [G]
[B]
[A] [G]
[B]
[Bm] [D] When the wind [G] behind our eyes [B] swells,
[Bm] Staring [D] down all who [G]
generalize [B] well,
A [D] chemical change [G] of the [B] spirit
Will be [D] the exchange for [G]
our piss [E] air.
But in [G] rainbow arms, [D] a mask that we [E] wear,
Light
[G] lights on [D] in the daytime's [B] air.
The light of the state of [A] [G]
lights,
[B] As if it's a game well played,
[A] When we were [G]
lights,
[Bm]
If [D] we enter [Bm] through the front door,
Lift the keys and slow the night forward,
Are we afraid [D] to [Bm] be the masters
[D] Of the tingles [G] of disaster?
[E]
Ladies [G] and gentlemen, [D] it's time to [E] admire,
We want to give this [G] a moment now [D] to ask you, [B] dear,
Is it good to say that [A] we're only [G]
lights?
As [B] if it's a game well played,
[A] We're only [G] lights,
As [B] if we're survivors,
[A] We only want to [G] be lights [B] now,
So dedicated,
We [A] only want to [G] be lights now.
[Bm] [D]
I was searching for something,
Beyond the [G] night,
Beyond the [Bm] lights,
[D] Every night,
It is my seduction,
[G]
Or my destruction.
[Bm]
[G]
[Bm]
[G]
Turning our night lights on in [D] the daytime's [E] air,
