Am C G

Am
Now that we have pulled away
       C               G
is it better on the inside?
    Am                  
And did you like the offerings
       C                     G
on the counter, under black lights?

          Am                  
While the stars have aligned
                                 C 
with a light that irradiates all of us
       G
in the parallel
         Am
let the temperature rise
                               C 
'til the urge to relieve it is perilous.
        G                Am    C  G
Let the silences make it easy.

Am C G

Am                        
Driving through the border range
        C                  G
did we pass along the same road?
       Am                    
We are ashes in the polar rays
        C                   G
We are blooming at the same time
 
           Am                                      
While the sun slips away from the crest of the barricade
C
Radiant
       G
In the winter light
      Am                                
If a tenth of the law is the urge to invalidate
C
Starry-eyed
      G
And inveterate
      F
And invincible
            Am    C  G
You make it easy.

Am C G

      Am                   
Is it heart attack and burial?
      C                   G
Is it evening on the west side?
Am                                   
Now that we are coming down
         C                   G
Are you bracing for the next wave?
     Am               
The return of the life,
                            C
the return of the colors of everyone
         G
to the gallery.
  Am                
I believe in the rush
                           C
I believe in the gathering radiance
             G
I could walk alive
          F
through a burning wall.
Am                       C  G
Believing makes it easy.
