Bbm        F         Bbm                     F 
I’ve never been this accountable-less and within  
Bbm        F         Bbm               F 
I’ve never known focusless-ness on any form  
Bbm        F         Bbm                  F 
I’ve never had this lack of ache for dalliance,  
Bbm                F      Bbm                F 
To let go, and let god in ways I have never even imagined  

            Bbm                    F         
I declare a moratorium on things relationship  
            Bbm                           F 
I declare a respite from the toils of liaison  
            Bbm                            F 
I do need a breather from the flavors of entanglement  
            Bbm                                 F 
I declare a full time out from all things commitment  

(Bbm        F) 
I’ve never let my grasp soften fingers like this  
I’ve never been careless otherless like autonomy’s twin  

(Chorus)  

Cm    G 
Ah to breathe  
        Cm      G 
Stop looking outside  
Cm        G                  Cm 
Stop searching in corners of rooms  
                   G 
Not my business or timing  
Cm  G 
Ahhh  

(Bbm    F)     
I’ve never known freedom from intertwining  
I start again this time for keeps in my skin I’m residing  

(Chorus)
