listen to the sounds of ringing out around you
Bm
these are the cries of a dying breed
Em
politics of hate you’d never get around to
Bm
blood over brains that we never need
Em
i saw you in the back , studied and relaxed
Bm
fixed in the post like a silent stone
Em
serenity and tact , it’s the feeling that i lack
Bm
life in the floors of a stable home
G D
i can trace you on paper like a sketch of a smell
G D
you’re a breath to the runner in contest
G F# Bm
in close to the nerve , but you rest so far away
G A
and i have to give it up someday
D A G
every time i close my eyes i see you in front of me
F#m Em D
pretending in a love like this
A Em
i have no choice but to put you in back of me
G A
don’t cover my footsteps
Bm G
dead weight all right , i know you’re no good for me
Bm G
dead weight all right , i know you’re no righteous leader
D A Em

Bm
body to the wind , you talk me out of standstill
Em

G F Em
cheer me up , cheer me up , i’m invisibly stuck all in myself

G D
because it’s race and it’s power at the center of life ,
G D
were blind to the people who need us ,
G F# Bm

G A
and i hope to measure you someday .
