[Verse 1]

            C#m                Dm
See the cement has never meant so much
       Dm/G#                  Am
My hot head cools to the stone cold touch
             Em7          Fmaj7
I look to settle my seed with the dust
                Dm              Dm/G#
Brain, leave me be, can't you see that these eyes are shut?


[Verse 2]

C#m               Dm
    Enter my bed through that window
         Dm/G#            Am
I hit zero   As guiltless loveless sins flow
Em7          Fmaj7 
    Through me,  you threw me
Dm            Dm/G#
   I descend smoothly


[Verse 3]

C#m                 Dm
    My concrete bed beckons. Can you hear me?
Dm/G#              Am
     I was born in seconds Do you fear the
Em7               Fmaj7                       Dm Dm/G#
    Way you steer me      Towards the ground?


[Verse 4]

C#m          Dm
    No, no, no I was never scared
Dm/G#                   Am
     Pain, had made my vision impaired
Em7                     Fmaj7
   But now I'm free of care
     Dm                        Dm/G#
See, life isn't fair, then at least death's there


[Verse 5]

C#m                   Dm
    To hold both hands   And stroll through lands
       Dm/G#           Am
And as it stands The empty vessel of a man
Em7               Fmaj7
   Can't be moved    
       Dm                          Dm/G#
It's not the cracks or the grooves      But the pavement soothes


[Bridge]

C#m           Dm
    The pavement was soothing
Dm/G#       Am
     My body wasn't moving
Em7        Fmaj7
   Brain was buried deep beneath the ground
Dm              Dm/G#
   Fears would drown

C#m           Dm
    The pavement is soothing
Dm/G#       Am
     My body wasn't moving
Em7        Fmaj7
    Pain was buried deep beneath the ground
Dm        Dm/G#
   As fears would drown


[Verse 6]

          C#m                  Dm
See the cement has never meant so much
       Dm/G#                   Am
My hot head cools to the stone cold touch
          Em7             Fmaj7
I look to settle my seed with the dust
                Dm            Dm/G#
Brain, leave me be, can't you see that these eyes are shut?
