Key: ,
Chords used:
Dm-- x8
City of blue tile
Figure in Ceramics
Where we reach out
Grab for Porce-
-lain But it's too fragile to hold
And it shatters in our hands
In time the seasons will
seal these shards
Into the slits that
denote your wrists
Death is the answer
To calculations composed
of motions that are the same
And secret and different
A missing alphabet
with a message for us
When people die
(DIE,DIE!)
They take a piece
of us with them
(PEOPLE DIE AND DIE!)
And holes in clouds
are minutes passing
(DIE AND DIE!)
Rescind this line
and several ties
(PEOPLE DIE AND
DIE EVERYDAY!)
The skyline unfolds
into expla-
-nation That sometimes
words give up
And silently walk off the
edge the edge of the page
And here the cry opens up
reveals the word inside
The crack in the porcelain
The crack in the porcelain
The crack in the porcelain
Bb--Dm--
The silent line of
skylit eyes show
The silent line of
skylit eyes show
The silent line of
skylit eyes show
The silent line of
skylit eyes show
(Repeat)
D--
Sing in Backup:
Death up there shine
more brightly than
lives down here
Try and live
(Repeat Verse 2)
