 These are dreams they gave to you 
      G                        C

 My skin peels like wallpaper 
       G                   C             G 
In the house that we don't go to anymore

Verse 2
C 
 Feelings are far too radical 
   G                 C 
To ever see eye to eye

 A mother's son was k*lled today 
     G                      C 
And only what she knows is why 
C 
 Beheaded by hands of so-called faith 
       G                           C 
Maybe for a chance to live in the sky 
C 
 Whatever the goal and point they saw it 
        G                   C 
I don't think that was the way to go about it 
G                     C 
They don't see a way around it

 Finally, I've come home, slipping off my shoes

Into a land that brings such safety to me
