G          Bm
Everyone's careful
G                      Bm
They're plotting their best escapes
G                Bm                  C
For fear of this whole place burning down

Puzzles and pieces
G                Bm
We're tangled in cages
G               Bm
They rattle and shake their bones
G                  Bm
They grew from the earth
               C
I watched them grow

They came up and grabbed me

   Am         D                      Bm
So stand in a world that seems to be built
   C
On pillars and numbers
   Am             D                   Bm
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
       C                         G       Bm  G  Bm
Before we have learned to love ourselves

G            Bm
Measures and objects
G                Bm
They fall in our fuel of words
G                    Bm            C
And we are whittled away by zeros, ones

Somebody save us!
G          Bm
And nobody asks this
G              Bm
Where does our heart live on?
G              Bm                C
In dreaming of dangers, dream of God

And maybe we've got it...

   Am         D                      Bm
So stand in a world that seems to be built
   C
On pillars and numbers
   Am             D                   Bm
Or dance with the hopes of falling in love
  C
Before we have learned
        Am          D                      Bm
Just to stand, in a world that seems to be built
   C
On pillars and numbers
   Am              D                   Bm
Or dance, with the hopes of falling in love
               C
But how can we love...
                    G     Bm
If we can't love ourselves?
              G    Bm  G
Can't love ourselves....
