Verse 1:
B
I can feel it on my tongue

Brick and mortar as thick as scripture
        Abm                    Ebm               Gb
Drawing lines in the sand and laying borders as tall as towers
B
I babble on until my voice is gone
 
Verse 2:

This hill I'll die on is about 90 meters of bricks
                                        Abm            Ebm
Colored indigo, inscribed with my name, and lined with cedar
       Gb
But the words fall flat like cymbals crashing
      B
Like molars gnashing
 
Chorus:
Gb                                          B
'Cause like constellations a million years away
                       Abm      Db
Every good intention, every good intention
B                Gb                     B
Is interpolation, a line we drew in the array
                        Abm
Looking for the faces

Looking for the shapes in the silence
 
Verse 3:
B
All that's left for me to climb to the heavens is the chasm of the night

And a matter of time
                Gb
But I hear the rumble

As the tectonic plates start to shake
     B
And I feel my blood pounding like the beat of a drum
 
Chorus:
Gb                                         B
'Cause like constellations a million years away
                   Abm       Db
Every good intention, every good intention
B                Gb                     B
Is interpolation, a line we drew in the array
                Abm
Clinging to the faces
 
Clinging to the shapes in the silence
 
Solo:
   Db Ab Db  B
   Eb Gb B Abm Gb B Ab
 
Chorus:
Gb                                      B
Like constellations imploding in the night
                       Abm           Gb
Everything is turning, everything is turning
                                                            B
And the shapes that you drew may change beneath a different light
                               Abm
And everything you thought you knew
Gb
will fall apart, but you'll be all right
