Dm          C     G         Dm
Why do I deserve the science to feel better about you?
Dm         C
At a loss I lost my cool
G           Dm
I denied that I found you
Dm           C
I tried to be a basket case
G         Dm
I did not surprise you
Dm             C
I'm trying to find a signal fire
G             Dm
Let me know when I should move

F             C
But you, amplified in the silence
         G        Dm
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Dm        C
Magnified in the science
G      Dm
Anatomically proved
F       G  Dm
That you don't need me

(Dm C G Dm)
(Dm C G Dm)

Dm         C
Why do I desire the space?
G          Dm
I was mourning after you
Dm           C
I was lost and lost my shape
G             Dm
There was nothing I could do
Dm          C
I don't want to waste away
G          Dm
It was all I gave to you
Dm            C
Take me back and take my place
G            Dm
I will rise right up for you

F             C
But you, amplified in the silence
         G        Dm
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Dm        C
Magnified in the science
G      Dm
Anatomically proved
F       G  Dm
That you don't need me

Dm            G
All the while you waste away, you're asking
C                     F  Em Dm
"Did I really need another one to take me down?"
Dm                       G
Everybody knows it's something that you had to live with darling
C            F  Em Dm
Nobody's gonna tear you down now
Dm             G
There is nothing you keep, there is only your reflection

(Dm C G Dm)
(Dm C G Dm)

Dm
There was nothing but quiet retractions
C                          G
And families pleading, "Don't look in that cabinet, there's far more bad than there's good,
            Dm
I don't know how it got there"
Dm
That was something your father had burned in me
C
Twenty hours out of Homestake eternity
G                        Dm
"You can go anywhere but you are where you came from"
Dm
Little girl you are cursed by my ancestry
C
There is nothing but darkness and agony
G                      Dm
I can not only see, but you stopped me from blinking
Dm
Let me watch you as close as a memory
C
Let me hold you above all the misery
G                     Dm
