Verse 1: *0:32 - 1:05*

C5              Bb5		     F5			  G#5
Sharp and open, leave me alone and sleeping less every night
       C5                      Bb5
As the days become heavier and weighted
        F5                G#5
Waiting in the cold light
           C5                             Bb5               F5
A noise, a scream tears my clothes as the figurines tighten
               G#5
With spiders inside them
                C5                  Bb5
And dust on the lips of a vision of hell
                 F5             G#5
I laughed in the mirror for the first time in a year.

  C5                  Bb5                F5       G#5
A hundred other words blind me with your purity
        C5                      Bb5		     F5			   G#5
Like an old painted doll in the throes of dance I think about tomorrow
              C5			 B5b	 F5			G#5
Please let me sleep as I slip down the window freshly squashed fly
         C5     Bb5        F5        G#5
You mean nothing, you mean nothing.

Verse 4: *4:51*

C5                Bb5		  F5		 	G#5
Too many secrets, too many lies writing with hatred

Too many secrets, please make it good tonight
        C5			  Bb5				F5
But the same image haunts me in sequence, in despair of time
       G#5              C5
I will never be clean again
            Bb5              F5
Touched her eyes, pressed my stained face
       G#5              C5
I will never be clean again (Figure 1)
          Bb5            F5
Touch her eyes, press my stained face
       G#5              C5  Bb5  F5
I will never be clean again
       G#5              C5  Bb5  F5
I will never be clean again
       G#5              C5  Bb5  F5
I will never be clean again
       G#5
I will never be clean again.
