D
with a cold brown ground
A
i remember
G
a certain fall
D
mother screams and calls
A
from the sink she saw
G
me fall, fall, fall
D
she thinks there's blood on my hands
A
but doesn't understand
G
how deep, deep, deep
D
she tries to help me stand
A
but we sink in the sand
G
neck deep, deep, deep
[Chorus]
C G
time grows stale and still
C G
when waiting on the pill
C G
to dress my wounds in my will
Am
is this blood real
C D
will i cease to feel
[Verse]
D
now there's bareness all around
A
leaves mask the sound
G
and they fall
D
mother earth fades and rusts
A G
as her child in us falls, falls, falls
D
mother doesn't know
A G
its ok to slow down, down, down
D
yes i've dulled and dimmed
A
but there's a fire still within
G
deep down, down, down
[Chorus]
C G
time grows stale and still
C G
when waiting on the pill
C G
to dress my wounds in my will
Am
is this blood real
C D
will i cease to feel
