Red, Like Roses

[F#m9]each night I close my eyes
and [B6]wonder what will come of me
[F#m9]in days to foll[B6]ow
[F#m9]I lay awake and after [B6]countless hours,
I just can`t think str[F#m9]aight
turn in, fade, pa[B6]ss out
yet, in this s[F#m9]imple way, we of[B6]fer
to des[F#m9]troy all we can`t fi[B6]gure out
in our [F#m9]simple lives, uncon[B6]scious
we e[F#m9]mploy our skills from un[B6]derground
to [Dmaj7]seek what we`ve [Cdim]never s[C#m7]een
to e[Dmaj7]xplore, [C#7sus4]deep    [C#7]
[F#m9]inside  [B6]

the mornings greet me with grey days and tear-stained windowsills and pillowcases
I get dressed and go to work
bloody noses, red like roses pose as sanctuary
when I just need a minute to myself
and in this simple way, we offer
to destroy all we can`t figure out
in our simple lives, unconscious
we employ our skills from underground
to seek what we`ve never seen
to find, where we never knew
to explore deep, inside

kill me, won`t you kill me
kill me
 let me sleep again
 kill me
 don`t relate your memories
 kill me
 kill me won`t you
 to see
 what we`ve never seen to find
 where we never knew to go
 where we never dared to explore
 deep...
