Am      C
I know you're not a liar and

I know you could set fire this day

Go ahead and make me look away
 
Am        C                       Dm

I am simply very perplexed by your ways
 C             F                E
Why would you let us use your name?

2. FALL AWAY
 
[Chorus]
Dm     A
     I don't wanna fall  fall away
A#     F                 C
     I don't wanna fall  fall away
Dm     A
     I'll keep the lights on in this place
A#            F                 C
     'Cause I don't wanna fall  fall away
 
[Verse 1]
Dm
I disguise and I will lie
    A
And I will take my precious time
       A#
As the days melt away as I stand in line
      F                  C
And I die as I wait as I wait on my crime
         Dm
And I'll try to delay what you make of my life
      A
But I don't want your way  I want mine
    A#
I'm dying and I'm trying but believe me I'm fine
        F                  C
But I'm lying  I'm so very far from fine
 
[Bridge]
    Dm      A             A#
And I can feel the pull begin
               F             Dm
I feel my conscience wearing thin
        A              A#           F      C
And my skin  It will start to break up and fall apart
 
[Chorus]
Dm     A
     I don't wanna fall  fall away
A#     F                 C
     I don't wanna fall  fall away
Dm     A
     I'll keep the lights on in this place
A#            F                 C
     'Cause I don't wanna fall  fall away
 
[Verse 2]
      Dm
Every time I feel selfish ambition is taking my vision
   A
My crime is my sentence  repentance is taking commission
     A#
It's taking a toll on my soul  I'm screaming submission and
F                      C
I don't know if I am dying or living
              Dm
'Cause I will save face for name's sake  abuse grace
     A
Take aim to obtain a new name in a newer place
       A#
But my name is lame  I can't walk and I ain't the same
       F                 C
And my name became a new destiny to the grave
 
[Bridge]
    Dm      A             A#
And I can feel the pull begin
               F             Dm
I feel my conscience wearing thin
        A              A#           F      C
And my skin  It will start to break up and fall apart
 
[Outro]
Dm     A
     I don't wanna fall  fall away
A#     F                 C
     I don't wanna fall  fall away
Dm     A
     I'll keep the lights on in this place
A#            F                 C
     'Cause I don't wanna fall  fall away

3. THE PANTALOON
 
[Verse]
A            D                  F#m
Your grandpa died when you were nine
          A      E        A
They said he had lost his mind
         D               F#m
You have learned way too soon
           A     E              A   D  F#m  A  E
You should never trust the pantaloon
 
[Verse]
A             D          F#m
Now it's your turn to be alone
       A        E                A
Find a wife and build yourself a home
         D               F#m
You have learned way too soon
          A      E            D
That your dad is now the pantaloon
 
[Chorus]
D
   You are tired
A
   You are hurt
F#m
   A moth ate through
E
   Your favorite shirt
D
   And all your friends
A
   Fertilize
F#m                  E
   The ground you walk
D    E    A
Lose your mind
 
[Verse]
             A
He's seen too many stare downs between the sun and the moon
D
In the morning air, how he used to hustle all the people
F#m
Walking through the fairgrounds, he's been around so long
                 A
He's changed his meaning of a chair now
E
  Because a chair now,
A
  Is like a tiny island in the sea of all the people
D
  Who glide across the very surface that made his bones feeble
F#m
  The end can't come soon enough but is it too soon?
A                       E
  Either way he can't deny he is a pantaloon
 
[Chorus]
D
   You are tired
A
   You are hurt
F#m
   A moth ate through
E
   Your favorite shirt
D
   And all your friends
A
   Fertilize
F#m                  E
   The ground you walk
E    D    A
Lose your mind
 
[Verse]
A                 D                           F#m
You like to sleep alone, it's colder than you know
                   A  E              A
Cause your skin is so used to colder bones
                   D                          F#m
It's warmer in the morning than what it is at night
                    A
Your bones are held together
        E                   D
By your nightmares and your frights
 
[Chorus]
D
   You are tired
A
   You are hurt
F#m
   A moth ate through
E
   Your favorite shirt
D
   And all your friends
A
   They fertilize
F#m
   The ground you walk
E
   So lose your mind
D
   You are tired
A
   You are hurt
F#m
   A moth ate through
E
   Your favorite shirt
D
   And all your friends
A
   They fertilize
F#m                  E
   The ground you walk
D    E    A
Lose your mind

4. ADDICT WITH A PEN
 
[Intro]
G/B   Bm   Em   C
 
[Chorus]
 G/B                         Bm
Hello, we haven't talked in quite some time
   Em                      C      G/B
I know I haven't been the best of sons
 G/B                                Bm
Hello, I've been traveling in the deserts of my mind
    Em                  C      G/B     Bm
And I haven't found a drop of life
                   Em      C
I haven't found a drop of you
                  G/B  Bm
I haven't found a dr - op
                  Em    C
I haven't found a dr - op
    G/B   Bm   Em   C
Of water
C G/B    Bm    Em   C    G/B   Bm   Em   C
Wa   -   ter.       Oh, woaah.
 
[Verse]
G/B
I try desperately to run through the sand
      Bm
As I hold the water in the palm of my hand
         Em
Cause it's all that I have and it's all that I need and
     C
The waves of the water mean nothing to me
G/B
But I try my best and all that I can to
 Bm
Hold tightly onto what's left in my hand
Em
But no matter how, how tightly I will strain
     C
The sand will slow me down and the water will drain
G/B
I'm just being dramatic, in fact, I'm only at it again
Bm
As an addict with a pen who's addicted to the wind
       Em
As it blows me back and forth, bindless, spineless, and pretend
     C
Of course I'll be here again; see you tomorrow
                     G/B
But it's the end of today, end of my ways as a walking denial
    Bm
My trial was filed as a crazy suicidal head case
Em
But you specialize in dying; You hear me screaming: "Father"
 C
And I'm lying here just crying; so wash me with your water
 
[Interlude]
G/B   Bm   Em   C     G/B   Bm   Em     C
                  Wa   -   ter,    Oh, oh
 
[Chorus]
 G/B                         Bm
Hello, we haven't talked in quite some time
   Em                      C      G/B
I know I haven't been the best of sons
 G/B                                Bm
Hello, I've been traveling in the deserts of my mind
    Em                 C       G/B     Bm
And I haven't found a drop of life
               Em
I haven't found a drop
    C
Of you
                  G/B      Bm
I haven't found a dr   -   op
                  Em      C
I haven't found a dr   -   op
    G/B   Bm   Em   C
Of water
 
[Outro]
G   Bm   Em   C   G/B

I feel for you but when did you believe you were alone
     Cm                                   Gm
You say that spiders crawled inside and made themselves a home
        F         D
Where light once was
 
[Verse 2]
   Cm                        Gm
Petrified of who you are and who you have become
 Cm                           Gm
You will hide from everyone, denying you need someone
F                    D
To exterminate your bones
 
[Chorus]

Living like a ghost you walk by everyone you know
 Cm                                   Gm
You say that you're fine but you have lost your sway and glow
F                           D
So I stopped by to let you know
 
[Chorus]

'Cause I just won't let go 'til we both see the light

6. MARCH TO THE SEA
 
[Verse 1]
 G                                     C
There's miles of land in front of us.
                                           Em
And we're dying with every step we take.
                                         D
We're dying with every breath we make.
                       G
And I'll fall in line.
                                C
A stranger's back is all I see.
                                     Em
He's only a few feet in front of me.
                                 D
And I'll look left and right sometimes,
                  G
But I'll fall in line.
                         C
No one looks up anymore,
                                           Em
Cause you might get a raindrop in your eye.
                                D
And Heaven forbid they see you cry,
                G
As we fall in line.
                                   C
And about this time of every year,
                                    Em
The line will go to the ocean pier
                             D
And walk right off into the sea.
                       G
And then we fall asleep.
 
[Instrumental]
G  C  Em  D
G  C  Em  D
G  C  Em  D
 
[Verse 2]
G                               C
And as we near the end of land,
                                                Em
And our ocean graves are just beyond the sand.
                             D                    G
I ask myself the question, "Why... I fall in line?"
                                  C
Then out of the corner of my eye,
                              Em
I see a spaceship in the sky
                           D
and hear a voice inside my head.
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me."
 
[Instrumental]
G   C   Em   D
 
[Verse 3]
G                                 C
Then the wages of war will start
                                    Em
Inside my head with my counterparts.
                                                      D
And the emotionless marchers will chant the phrase,
                            G
"This line's the only way."
                                C
And then I start down the sand.
                                       Em
My eyes are focused on the end of land.
                               D
But again the voice inside my head says,
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
                      C   G   D
"Follow me instead."
 
[Verse 4]
G                         C
Take me up, seal the door.
                                   Em
I don't want to march here anymore.
                             D
I realize that this line is dead.
                       G
So I'll follow you instead.
                                    C
So then you put me back in my place,
                             Em
So I might start another day.
                         D
And once again I will be,
                      G
In a march to the sea.

7. JOHNNY BOY
 
[Intro]
C  Dm  Am  F   G  x2
 
[Verse 1]
C
He stays home from work this time
  Dm
He never really told his wife
   Am                           F             G                  C        Dm
He never really told a lie but this time he decides that it's alright.
    Am         F     G
It's alright.
C                                Dm
No one really knows his mind and no one knows behind his eyes.
   Am
The man deserves a medal
          F           G             C            Dm
But he's never really won a prize before.
                     Am        F     G
He goes to lock the door.
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F     Am    G
He has fallen
     C     Em    G    F
In love he knows it's enough
        Am    G     Em        G
But the world looks down and frowns.
 
[Chorus]
C             Dm                 Am
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy,
                  F                  G              C
Get up cause the world has left you lying on the ground.
                    Dm                       Am
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
              F           G                C      Dm

Someone said where you going

They deflect the disrespect when they say that they blame it on the times
                      Am         F      G
They blame it on the times.
C                               Dm
We all know you're qualified to fix a chair and love your wife
Am                                 F                   G                C  Dm
They all know you're qualified but they lie when they blame it on the times.
                       Am      F      G
Oh we blame it on the times.
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F      Am  G
He has fallen

In love he knows it's enough

But the world looks down and frowns.

You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.

Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.

We all need you now
 
[Bridge]

8. OH MS BELIEVER
 
[Verse 1]
(a cappella)
N.C.
Oh Ms. Believer, my pretty sleeper.
N.C.
Your twisted mind is like snow on the road.
N.C.
Your shaking shoulders prove that it's colder,
N.C.
Inside your head, than the winter of death.
 
[Verse 2]
C               F Am
I will tell you, I love you.
        F             C         Am         G
But the muffs on your ears will cater your fears.
C                    F          Am
My nose and feet are running as we start
   F              C     Am          G
To travel through snow. Together we go.
F C Am G           F C Am G
      (Together we go)
 
[Chorus]
 F       Am C G
 We get colder,
    F        Am C G
 As we grow older.
 F        Am C G
 We will walk
 F        Am C G
 So much slower.
 
[Interlude]
F C Am G F C Am G
 
[Verse 3]
 C                F         Am
 Oh Ms. Believer, my pretty weeper.
 F            C                 Am          F   G
 Your twisted thoughts are like snow on the rooftops.
C                           F          Am
 Please take my hand, we're in foreign land
       F              C       Am        G
 As we travel through snow. Together we go.
F C Am G           F C Am G
      (Together we go [echo])
 
[Chorus]
 F       Am C G
 We get colder,

 As we grow older.
 F        Am C G
 We will walk
 F        Am C G
 So much slower.

I don't fall slow like I used to
Bbm                   (Bbm)
I fall straight down
Ab                      Gm
You've stolen my air catcher
C
That kept me safe and sound
Eb
My parachute's what got me
Bbm
Safely to ground
Ab          Gm
But now the cord's not working
C
And I see you staring me down
 
[Chorus]

I won't fall in

Love with falling
Ab               C
I will try to avoid
C
Those eyes

Eb
 I think you would beat
              Bbm
The moon in a pretty contest
Ab                        Gm
     And the moon just happened to be
    C
The very first thing that I missed
Eb
  I was doing fine on my own
    Bbm
And there wasn't much I lacked
Ab                      Gm
   But you've stolen my air catcher
    C
And I don't know if I want it back
 
[Chorus]
Fm
I won't fall in
Db
Love with fall in
Ab               C
I will try to avoid
C
Those eyes
Fm
'Cause I'm not sure

I want to give you
Ab                 C
Tools that can destroy
C      Fm
My heart
 
[Bridge]
Fm               Ab
And I just don't say
 Ab            Bb
What you wanna hear
Bb               Db
So I'll write my fears
Fm            Ab
And I don't believe
Ab               Bb
In talking just to breathe
Bb                 Db
And falling selfishly
 
[Chorus]
Fm
I won't fall in
  Db       Ab
Love with fall in
              C
I will try to avoid
 C
Those eyes
(Fm)
But now I'm here
   (Db)     (Eb)
To give you words
   (Ab)             (C)
As tools that can destroy
(C)      (Fm)
My heart

10. TRAPDOOR
 
[Intro]
F#m C#m A C#m G#
 
[Verse 1]
F#m         C#m
He wakes up early today
A           C#m            G#
Throws on a mask that will alter his face
F#m    C#m
Nobody knows his real name
    A           C#m         G#
But now he just uses one he saw on a grave
    F#m   C#m              A
And he pretends that he's okay
    C#m        G#    F#m
But you should see
       C#m         A          C#m   G#
Him in bed late at night, he's petrified
A       G#                              A
Take me out, and finish this waste of a life
 
[Chorus]
         E                   B
Everyone gather around for a show
              C#m                  A
Watch as this man disappears as we know
        E                B
Do me a favor and try to ignore
                 B                           F#m C#m A C#m G#
As you watch him fall through a blatant trapdoor
 
[Verse 2]
F#m            C#m
He thinks that faith might be dead
A               C#m        G#               F#m
Nothing kills a man faster than his own head
           C#m
He used to see dreams at night
    A             C#m          G#               F#m
But now he's just watching the backs of his eyes
      C#m              A
And he pretends that he's okay
    C#m        G#  F#m
But you should see

Him in bed late at night, he's petrified

Take me out, and finish this waste of a life

Do me a favor and try to ignore

When you watch him fall through a bleeding trapdoor

'Cause nobody knows he's alive

11. A CAR, A TORCH, A DEATH
 
[Verse 1]
    A#                             F
The air begins to feel a little thin
     Dm                           C
As I start the car and then I begin
   A#                         F
To add the miles piled up behind me
  Dm                           C
I barely feel a smile deep inside me
 
[Verse 2]
      A#                                F
And I begin to envy the headlights driving south
          Dm                             C
I want to crack the door so I can just fall out
     A#                              F
But then I remember when you packed my car
    Dm                                  C
You reached in the back and bucked up your heart
    A#     F     Dm   C
For me to drive away with
 
 
[Chorus]
  A#        F        Dm
I began to understand

Why God died
 
[Interlude]

A# F Dm C
 
[Verse 3]
    A#                           F
The demon sat there waiting on her porch
         Dm                             C
It was a little dark so we held a makeshift torch
    A#                          F
And when my car was far out of sight
   Dm                                         C
He crept in her room and stayed there for the night
 
[Bridge]
           A#
And then I felt chills in my bones
             F
The breath I saw was not my own
          Dm
I knew my skin that wrapped my frame
        C
Wasn't made to play this game
            A#
And then I saw him, torch in hand
            F
He laid it out, what he had planned
           Dm
And then I said, I'll take the grave
              C
Please, just send them all my way
           A#
And then I felt chills in my bones
             F
The breath I saw was not my own
          Dm
I knew my skin that wrapped my frame
        C
Wasn't made to play this game
            A#
And then I saw him, torch in hand
            F
He laid it out, what he had planned

And then I said, I'll take the grave

Please, just send them all my way

I began to understand

Why God died
 
[Interlude]

[Outro]
    A#                            F
The air begins to feel a little thin
         Dm                          C
As we're waiting for the morning to begin
A#                                F
But for now you told me to hold this jar
           Dm
And when I looked inside, I saw
         C
It held your heart
    A#     F       Dm C
For me to walk away with
  A#         F      Dm
I began to understand
  C            A# F
Why God died

   I wanna fall inside your ghost
A       E             F#m     D        A       E
    And fill up every hole inside my mind

  And I want everyone to know
A       E           F#m    D       A     E
   That I am half a soul divided
 
[Chorus]
Bm                                  E
Sometimes we will die and sometimes we will fly away
Bm                             F#m          E
Either way you're by my side until my dying days
    Bm                           E
And if I'm not there and I'm far away. I said,
A       C#m      F#m       A      C#m      F#m            D
"Don't be afraid." I said, "Don't be afraid. We're going home."
 
[Verse 2]
F#m             D
  I wanna strip myself of breath
A     E                 F#m          D         A      E
   A breathless piece of death I've made for you
F#m        D                A          E
  A mortal rotting piece of song will help me carry on
F#m    D         A     E
  But this you heard
 
[Chorus]
Bm                                  E
Sometimes we will die and sometimes we will fly away

Either way you're by my side until my dying days

And if I'm not there and I'm far away. I said,
A       C#m      F#m       A      C#m      F#m            D
"Don't be afraid." I said, "Don't be afraid. We're going home."
 
[Break]
A
So the hearse ran out of gas
C#m
A passenger person grabbed a map
F#m
And the driver inside it contrived a new route to save the past
A
And checked his watch and grabbed a cab
C#m
A beautifully plain taxi cab
F#m
A cab, had it cleared out back and two men started to unpack
A
Driving once again
C#m
But now this time there were three men
F#m
And then I heard one of them say, "I know the night will turn to gray
A
I know the stars will start to fade
C#m
When all the darkness fades away
F#m
We had to steal him from his fate So he could see another day."
    A
And then I cracked open my box
F#m
Someone must have picked the lock
C#m
A little light revealed the spot Where my fingernails had fought
A
Then I pushed it open more
F#m
Pushing up against the door
C#m
Then I sat up off the floor And found the breath I was searching for
A
Then there were three men up front
C#m
All I saw were backs of heads
F#m
And then I asked, "Am I alive and well or am I dreaming dead?"
A
And then one turned around to say,
C#m
"We're driving toward the morning sun
F#m
Where all your blood is washed away And all you did will be undone."
 
[Outro]
A C#m F#m
        And I said,
A        C#m   F#m
 "Don't be afraid."
A C#m F#m
        I said,
A        C#m   F#m
 "Don't be afraid."

14. ISLE OF FLIGHTLESS BIRDS
 
[Intro]
Em    D    G D Am B7
Em    D    G D Am B7
Em  Am  G  B7
Em  Am  G  B7
Em  Am  G  B7
Em  Am  G  B7
 
[Verse 1]
Em         Am     G      B7
Now is the climax to the story
     Em        Am         G      B7
That gives the demons and angels purpose
Em       Am           G      B7
They fly around while we are walking
    Em        Am      G       B7          C
And mold our emotions just to please them
 
[Chorus]
     D             Em
I am cold, can you hear
       G         B7            C
I will fly, with no hope, no fear
        D                 Em
And the ground, taunts my wings
             G     D
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I sing
 
[Interlude]
Em Am G B7
Em Am G
 
[Verse 2]
B7                Em
All we are is an isle of flightless birds
            Am                              G
We find our worth in giving birth and stuff
                                       B7
We're lining our homes against winding roads
 
And we think the going is tough
   Em                               Am
We pick songs to sing, remind us of things that no body cares about
    G                            B7
And honestly we're probably more suicidal than ever now
Em                      Am                                        G
If you decide to live by, what you think's wrong and what's right
                                         B7
Believe me you'll begin to wish you were sleeping
                                           Em
Your weeping will creep in head and you'll cry
                        Am                           G
But if we wake up every morning and decide what we believe
                      B7                                     Em  Am G B7
We can take apart our very heart and the light will set us free
 
[Chorus]
C    D             Em
I am cold, can you hear
       G         B            C
I will fly, with no hope, no fear
          D               Em
And the ground, taunts my wings
             G     D             C
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I
     D             Em
I am cold, can you hear
       G         D           C
I will fly, with no hope, no fear
          D               Em
And the ground, taunts my wings
             G     D
Plummet as I sing, plummet as I
 
[Verse 3]
    C
How frustrating, and so degrading
                       D
His time, we're wasting
                                                             Em
And time will fly by and the sky will cry as light is fading
 
And he is waiting, oh so patiently
         G                                  D
While we repeat the same routine as we will please comfortability
    C
And please think about why you can't sleep in the evening
    D
And please don't be afraid of what your soul is really thinking
Em
Your soul knows good and evil, your soul knows both sides
         G                        D
And it's time you pick your battle, and I promise you this is mine
