  			verse 1 
D            Em       C  G 
what is it like to be empty 
D            Em            C    G 
full of only echoes and my body caving in 
D     Em       C       G 
a cathedral of arching ribs 
D       Em        C      G 
heaving out their broken hymns 

verse 2 
D         Em       C      G 
thought i made out your reply 
       D       Em      C         G 
in the seconds between sound and light 
      D          Em        C      G 
and i could have sworn the sirens were the 
D    Em         C                 G 
holy ghost just speaking in morse code 

Chorus 1 
      Em                           C              G

      Em                         C                 G 
cause nothing that i do has ever helped to turn it off 
    Em                             C        G 
and everything supposed to help me sleep at night 
              D                 C     G 
don't help me sleep at night anymore 

verse 3 
D      Em       C          G 
from a distance light from stars 
D     Em        C        G 
entry wounds or puncture marks 
D       Em        C    G 
leaking from your arms through the 
D     Em   C    G 
perforated dark 

Chorus 2 
      Em                      C                   G 
cause lord lord lord is there some way to make it stop 
      Em                         C                 G 
cause nothing that i do has ever helped to turn it off 
    Em                             C        G 
and everything supposed to help me sleep at night 
              D                 C 
don't help me sleep at night anymore 

Outro 
   Am        G         D         C 
so could you hear from heaven on earth 
     Am              G        D                   C 
if i scream a little louder i know you would have heard 
Am       G     D              C 
say there's no way i could be further 
     Am              G        D                   C 
if i scream a little louder i know you would have heard it
