Verse 1
EmI cannot spend another night in this home
B7I close my eyes and take a breath real slow
CThe consequence is if I leave I'm alone
B7But what's the difference when you beg for love?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
CauseEm I run through glass in the B7street (kerosene hearts)
CCarry the name that my father gave me
B7And take the face of the wolf
Chorus
Cause this is a Emwasteland, my Conly reA7treat
With heaven aEmbove you, there's Chell over A7me
Verse 2
EmI met a girl who never looked so alone
B7Like sugar water in your mouth lukewarm
CShe tied a cherry stem for me with her tongue
B7We fell in love and now we're both alone
[Pre-Chorus 2]
CauseEm I don't need any more B7friends
And Emanother kiss like a Cfire on pavement
B7We'll burn it down to the end
Chorus
Cause this is a Emwasteland, my Conly reA7treat
With heaven aEmbove you, there's hCell over A7me
The water is Emrusted, the air is unCclean
And there for a A7second I feel B7free
Cause this is a Emwasteland, my Conly reA7treat
Bridge
EmI've waited all this night to B7honor you and Dsay
"I know it's Emhard, but who are you to B7fall apart on Dme, on D7me?"
Chorus
Cause this is a Emwasteland, my Conly reA7treat
With heaven aEmbove you, there's Chell over A7me
You said what about Emus, well what about Cme?
Hang from the A7gallows, asleep in the B7rain
Cause this is a Emwasteland, my Conly A7retreat
Outro
EmParalyze me
Don't let me jump, don't let me A7fall
