Rain [D] beats down,
[E] down on the outer [A] walls
[G] Down on [D] the skyline, where [C#] the [C#m] streetlights
[F#] Shine like [E] unquenchable coals
[F#] And I'm [A] up high,
[E] vying to say [A] goodbye
[G] The only way I [F#] know how, [A] crude and graceless
Peeking [G] through [D] the eyeholes, [A]
seeing [D] the real you
[A] And just [Bm] after midnight, when [A] it feels like it's getting late
I will [E] reveal you, I will [Bm] reveal you
[A]
[F#] Crowds [A] have gone, [E] just a few [A] hangers on
[G] [D] Come [C#m] to see me, [F#] finally tear through the stitching [E] at last
[D] [F#m] You [D] don't pull, [E] you look almost relieved [A] down there
[G] Like [F#] you're free, like [D] you can breathe now
[A] [D] Like they've sawn off your cast
One more sleeper to see through
[A] And by way [Bm] of honoring [D] the things we once both [A] held dear
I [E] will reveal you, I [Bm] will reveal you
[A]
[G] Passive [A] thousands, but we [D] were the real two
[A] When [Bm] I'm alone, before [A] a mirror, late at night
I [E] will reveal you, I [Bm] will reveal you
