[Intro]
C G F
And we keep speeding, and we keep speeding
C G F
And we keep crashing, and we keep crashing
C G F
And we keep reaching, and we keep reaching
C G F
And we keep crying, 'til we start laughing
C G F
Long before my fall from grace
C G F
For a piece of me, they paid
C G F
From the throat, I'm tied to you
C G F
All of us, still cracked in two
[Verse 1]
Am C
And the ones in the back cry "wait for me"
G Dm
And the ones in the front cry "you're too slow, you're too slow"
Am C
And the ones who are weak cry "carry me"
G Dm
And the ones who are strong cry "let me go, let me go"
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am C
We reach for the things we idolize
G Dm
But the rings are just for show
Am C
Her beauty is a form of charity
G Dm
Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow
[Chorus 1]
Am C
Dressed to suppress, dressed to suppress, dressed to suppress
G Dm
Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow
Am C
Dressed to suppress, dressed to suppress, dressed to suppress
G Dm
Dressed to suppress all kinds of sorrow

Long before my fall from grace

From the throat, I'm tied to you
C G F
All of us, still cracked in two
[Verse 2]
Am C
And the ones we ignore cry "come to me" (come to me)
G Dm
Are the ones we adore cry "give me space, give me space"
Am C
And the ones who are cruel cry "beg for me" (beg for me)
G Dm
And the ones they possess, they love the chase, love the chase
[Pre-Chorus 2]

We reach for the things we idolize (idolize)
