Tom: Am
Am F Am
You rip them into pieces but earthworms live and grow
Am F Am
You break their heart with ease ‘cause you know that they have more
[Verse]
Am
Regenerated, but all this time you’ve suffocated
F
Forgetting how to live for no one but yourself, you hate it
Am
The windows let in too much light for just two eyes
F Am
Put curtains pertinently over anything that’s hurting
Am
Step back, gotta listen to the warning signs
F
But they’re just palimpsests
Am
Painted over, pre-pre-pre-pre-pretending
Am
Invigorated by all the pain and all the hatred
F
Better kill me now ‘cause
Am
I’ll have a lot to say when I’m famous
[Chorus]
Am F A
You rip them into pieces but earthworms live and grow
Am F A
You break their heart with ease ‘cause you know that they have more
Am F Am
Ah, Ah, you won’t make it alive
[Verse]
Am
Mean little boys who never grow up
F Am
Cut up all the little earthworms, call it love, bullshit
Am
‘Cause when they squint their eyes at dimming lights
F
You pull a Charles Boyer
Am
Fight ’til you destroy their sense of what is right
Am F
Young minds molded into whatever makes you feel you're unconfined
Am
And you can’t tell that they’re maligned
You go toward the storm blind
Filthy fingers cover trusting eyes
F Am
You won’t make it alive
[Chorus]
Am F Am
You rip them into pieces but earthworms live and grow
Am F Am
You break their heart with ease ‘cause you know that they have more
Am F Am
You rip them into pieces but earthworms live and grow
Am F Am
You break their heart with ease ‘cause you know that they have more
[Bridge]
Am F Am
Ah, Ah, you won’t make it alive
Am F Am
Ah, Ah, you won’t make it alive
[Chorus]
Am F E7
You rip them into pieces but earthworms live and grow
Am F E7
You break their heart with ease ‘cause you know that they have more
Am F E7
You rip them into pieces but earthworms live and grow
Am F E7
You break their heart with ease ‘cause you know that they have more
Am F E7
You rip them into pieces but earthworms live and grow
Am F E7
(Ah, Ah, you won’t make it alive)
You break their heart with ease ‘cause
Am
(Ah, Ah)
F E7
You won’t make it alive
