Transpose
Verse 1
Well, I've been waking up
Under blades, blue blossom days
If only Damocles would hit me
back
No alabaster carvings or faces
on a farthing
Would prevent my head from
fading to black
Pre-chorus
And it feels like falling into
the sea
From outer space in seconds to
me
And I play discordant days on
repeat
Until they look like harmony
Chorus
When the river runs dry and the
curtain is called
How will I know if I can't see
the bottom?
Come up for air and choke on it
all
No one else knows that I've got
a problem
What if I can't get up and stand
tall?
What if the diamond days are all
gone
And who will I be when thе
empire falls?
Wake up alonе and I'll be
forgotten
Interlude
Hey
Verse 2
Well, I know I should be touring
I know these chords are boring
But I can't always be killing
the game
No golden grand pianos or voices
from the shadows
Will do anythin' but feel the
same
Pre-chorus
And it feels like falling into
the deep
From somewhere way up over the
peaks
And I play discordant days on
repeat
Until the tape runs out on me
Chorus
When the river runs dry and the
curtain is called
How will I know if I can't see
the bottom?
Come up for air and choke on it
all
No one else knows that I've got
a problem
What if I can't get up and stand
tall?
What if the diamond days are all
gone?
And who will I be when the
empire falls?
Wake up alone and I'll be
forgotten
Bridge
And nobody told me I'd be
begging for relief
When what is silent to you feels
like it's screaming to me
Well, nobody told me I'd get
tired of myself
When it all looks like heaven,
but it feels like hell
Chorus
When the river runs dry and the
curtain is called
How will I know if I can't see
the bottom?
Come up for air and choke on it
all
No one else knows that I've got
a problem
What if I can't get up and stand
tall?
What if the diamond days are all
gone?
And who will I be when the
empire falls?
Wake up alone and I'll be
forgotten
