Standard (EADGBE)

 There are wires in between

 Human heart and machine.

 I will wait for mountains

 To tell me youre okay

 On paper my future will lay.

 Ill fold every failure into a crane.

 Trust is quicksand,

 Claiming everything I have,

 All to give me life, all to give me life.

Slow down, hide your eyes!

 The sun is setting fire

Through glass, branches deep.

 I cough only to breathe.

x8 measures

 Trust is quicksand,

 Claiming everything I have,

 All to give me life, all to give me life.

One thousand more to go,

 Ill send every prayer from below.

 I was swallowed by a whale.

Slow down, youre all words

 And love is made of yarn.

Scissors,

A slip of the hand, a slip of the tongue;

 God knows I meant no harm,

I meant no harm.

In between every promise and lie there is a kiss.

In between tempers and suitcases there is a kiss.

In between medicine and the sick there is a kiss.

In between arrows, aim, and release, there is a kiss.
