Strum
D-DU-UDU
Take  your last  look around
Take  the fall  that is due.
 And take your time,
 and I'll take mine.
It's  the last thing  that's  left for us to do
 You have tried to define romance,
 And all the things that it is not
 Your time became some old man's cane
 While he dances to a song that he forgot.
Oh,  you can't throw something out  there without watching it fall
Only  thing that's scarier than  dying is not dying at all.
So  when I have lost  all my control
God  will rest  my soul.
 I guess your mind can leave your heart.
 I guess that's what you're doing now.
 But it doesn't make us friends
 Or better men
 It is not something that love would allow.
 Oh you can't throw something out there without watching it fall,
 Only thing that's scarier than dying is not dying at all.
 So when I have lost all my control
 God will rest my soul.
And  just like how  I'll drink myself  through my seventh relapse,
Like  a captain of  his sinking ship  clutches to his maps.
What  the figure on the  cross thinks with  his one final gasp-
This  too shall pass.
 Oh you can't throw something out there without watching it fall,
 Only thing that's scarier than dying is not dying at all.
 So when I have lost all my control
 God will rest my soul.
