When I woke up this morning the trees didn't work

bird song had turned to gunfire and the stars were in the dirt

The snow feels like a heatwave,

The sunshine feels like rain.

If a feather touches my skin, it causes me pain

Come back, come back
Am
And make the world work again.

Come back and put an end to all this mess,
F G Am
Come back and prove the world's not heartless.

The air is thick as tar and my skin is bruised and stung
F G Am
I try to talk but no one understands my tongue

With every passing second,
Am
I age a million years
F G Am
When I fall and graze my knees The universe cheers

Come back, come back
Am
And make the world work again.

When i call your name out
Am
it turns to shrapnel in my mouth
F G Am
And the last time I looked up the north star was south.
