Standard (EADGBE)
Break me in, teach us to cheat
And to lie, and cover up what shouldn't be shared
And the truth's unwinding, scraping away
At my mind Please stop asking me to describe
For one mo-ment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open-mind-ed
I'm sure I us-ed to be so free
These verses and choruses are exactly the same as the previous ones.
Self-expressed
Exhausting for all to see and to be
What you want and what you need
And the truth's unwinding
Scraping away at my mind
Please stop asking me to describe
For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open-minded
I'm sure I used to be so free
For one moment
I wish you'd hold your stage
With no feelings at all
Open-minded
I'm sure I used to be so free
Bridge to Outro (after last chorus):
x3
Instrumental Outro Bit:
Wash me away
Clean your body of me
Erase all the memories
They'll only bring us pa-in
And I've seen all I'll ever need
