Bm A
To think of my task is chilling
Bm A
To know i was carefully building the
G A
Mask i was wearing
G A Bm
For two years, swearing i'd tear it off
Bm A
I've sat in the dark explaining
Bm A
To myself that i'm straining to
G A
Hard for feelings
G A Bm
I ought to find easily
A G7M
Called myself jezebel I don't believe
D/F# G9
Before i say that the vows we've made
A4 G9
Weigh like a stone in my heart
D/F# G9 A4 Bm
Family is family, don't let this tear us apart
Bm A
You lie there, an innocent baby
Bm A
I feel like the thief who is raiding your
G A
Home
G A Bm
Entering and breaking and taking in every room
Bm A
I know your feelings are tender
Bm A
Inside you the embers still
G A G A Bm
Glow but i'm a shadow, i'm only a bed of blackened coal
A G7M
Call myself jezebel for wanting to leave

D/F# G9 A4 G9

G A G
That i'm a desolate and hollow place inside

I'm not saying i'm replacing love for some other word
D/F# G9 A4 G9
To describe the sacred tie that bound me to you
D/F# G9
I'm not saying love's a plaything
A4 G9
No, it's a powerful word
D/F# G9 A4 G9
Inspired by strong desire to bind myself to you
D/F# G9 A4 G9
How i wish that we never had tried to be
D/F# G9 A4
Man and his wife to weave our lives into a blindfold
G9
Over both our eyes
