When you see Em*, you can play Em open if you want, but I find that it sounds
better with the bar chord.

Intro: Em*
Em*
Em* D
Take a look at my body
Look at my hands
There's so much here that I
Don't understand
Em* D
Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
I don't need them
I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable
Em* D
Well, contempt loves the silence
It thrives in the dark
With fine winding tendrils that
Strangle the heart
Em* D
They say that promises
Sweeten the blow
But I don't need them
No, I don't need them
I've been treated so wrong
I've been treated so long
As if I'm becoming untouchable
I'm a slow dying flower
In a frost killing hour
The sweet turning sour
And untouchable
Em*
Em*
O, I need the darkness, the sweetness
The sadness, the weakness
Oh, I need this
I need a lullaby, a kiss goodnight
Angel sweet love of my life
Oh, I need this
I'm a slow dying flower
In a frost killing hour
The sweet turning sour
And untouchable
Em* D
Do you remember the way
That you touched me before?
All the trembling sweetness
I loved and adored
Em* D
Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
No, I don't need them
O, I need the darkness, the sweetness
The sadness, the weakness
Oh, I need this
I need a lullaby, a kiss goodnight
The angel sweet love of my life
Oh, I need this
Is it dark enough? Can you see me?
Do you want me? Can you reach me?
Oh, I'm leaving
You better shut your mouth, hold your breath
Kiss me now and catch your death
Oh, I mean this
D...
