[Verse]
C
There is no great thing, to stop and sing
C
Waiting for the rain
C
And this perfect pill, it's all too much
C F - Am - G SLIDE BETWEEN CHORDS F - Am - G - G - C
On the edge again, don't look away
C
Couldn't help but note the coldest thing
C
In your precious face
C
Why do you always speak when you have no grace
C
In your precious face
[Chorus]
F Am G
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
F Am G
But these hot gates you spit your vitriol though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore
F Am G
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to
F Am G
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me
Am G C Am - G - C
And though we cry, we must stay alive
[Verse]
C
Another fragile edge, and a tender sound
C
And then you went aground
C
Near a duller blade, a promise out of sight
C
There's nothing here for you tonight
[Chorus]
F Am G
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
F Am G
But these hot gates you spit your vitriol though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore
F Am G
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to
F Am G
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me
Am G C
And though we cry, we must stay alive
[Bridge]
Am G C
And though we cry, we must stay alive

There is no way out of your only life
Am G
So run on, run on
