You're as sharp as a knife and you fit like a glove
Bm F#m
That is no way to live that is no way to love
G Bm D
Full of fear in your skin and the weakness in giving in
Em
Stabbed in the back but you feel no pain
F#m
Push the heaviest doors that you can't open
G Bm F#m
Yeah they tied me up and my body lies still, again
G
You're as bright as the sun and as bold as the moon
Bm F#m
I don't know when you'll break but it's gonna be soon
G Bm F#m
If my will caves in, I'll be in the same boat as you

Running to where he is
F#m G
Never going to give in
Bm D
Even with the strength
Em
He's stealing salt skin
F#m G Bm
Telling me I'm winning wars they created just to understand...

Hands on strings and my mouth open

And I won't tell the truth unless you want me to
Em
For all of the times that I lost my head
F#m
When it rolled to the floor and I found it again
G
But when it came back,
Bm F#m
I didn't know my own name
G
I've got the salt skin

Running to where he is

Even with the strength
