Verse:
B
Born inside the gates of the family
F#
Hardened by a Roman machinery
E
Cast among the building sites
Abm F#
The coiling wires, the shots collected
B
Called out in the wake of a lottery
F#
Held inside the family gathering
E
Mirrored beams and doglike stretch
Abm F#
The wandering association
Chorus:
E Abm F#
Murmurs in the dark confessional
E Abm F#
And it rides along the road, ephemeral
B
As in animal life
Verse:
Rusting in the shade of the batteries
Hanging from a rope in the gallery
Pacing down the balance beam of half-remembered holidays
No rush of light, no sign of belonging
No joy in building, love in the finishing
Chasing down an anodyne and half-reflected radiance
Chorus:
To hide below the ancient barricade
In chambers like the rooms a swallow made
For an animal life
Insturmental: intro chords x2
Verse:
Charging down the maw of the ocean
I wanna come close, I wanna come closer
I held your name inside my mouth through all the days of wandering
B
But called out from the mouth of oblivion
A
Cast away like dogs from the shelter
E
I shed the dulling armor plates
Abm F#
That once collected radiance
Chorus:
And surging at the blood's perimeter
The half-remembered wild interior
Of an animal life
Outro: Play intro chords to fade
