[Verse]
The only reason why I continue at all
Faith in reason, I wasted my life playing dumb
Signs and wonders: sea lion caves in the dark
Blind faith, God’s grace, nothing else left to impart
 
[Bridge]
Do I care if I survive this, bury the dead where they’re found
In a veil of great surprises; hold to my head till I drown
Should I tear my eyes out now, before I see too much?
Should I tear my arms out now, I wanna feel your touch
 
[Chorus]
Should I tear my eyes out now?
Everything I see returns to you somehow
Should I tear my heart out now?
Everything I feel returns to you somehow

it all sounds good except i cant make any sense of the chorus. doesnt sound right to me. please help.

Really clear and easy to follow

This is an interpretation suggestion more than anything: in the last bridge where Sufjan sings "Should I tear my eyes out now, before I see too much?/Should I tear my arms out now, I wanna feel your touch" I've been playing a modified version of the chorus chords. I feel this breaks up the first half of the bridge from the second and really propels you into the last chorus. Check it out: Should I tear my eyes out now before Iseetoo much? e|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|----9---9---9---9---4---4---4---4---5---5---5---5---5---5---5---5---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---| D|------7-------7-------0-------0-------3-------3-------3-------3-------5-------5-------5-------5-----| A|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|--8-------8-------3-------3-------5-------5-------5-------5-------7-------7-------7-------7---------| Should I tear my arms out now I wannafeelyour touch e|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|----9---9---9---9---4---4---4---4---5---5---5---5---5---5---5---5---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---7---| D|------7-------7-------0-------0-------3-------3-------3-------3-------5-------5-------5-------5-----| A|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|--8-------8-------3-------3-------5-------5-------5-------5-------7-------7-------7-------7---------|
