Intro
C F C F C F G
C F
I'm gnawing on the knowledge
C F
That I have been burnt
C F
And I'm learning things that I
C F
Should've already learnt
C F
Everyone I ever knew
C F
Was so kind and coy
C F
I was with a girl
C F
But it felt like I was with a boy
C
I can't even remember
F
If we were lovers
C G
Or if I just wanted to
C
But I held her in my arms
F
I held her in my arms
C
I held her in my arms
G
But it wasn't you
Repeat Intro
C F
I will not kill
C F
The one thing that I love
C F
In this world of wreckage
C F
I look above

Help me Lord

Help me understand

What it means to be a boy
C F
What it means to be a man
