Look up, what do you see?
G
All of you and all of me
Em
Fluorescent and starry
Bm
Some of them , they surprise
CG
The bus ride, I went to write this, 4:00 a.m.
Em
This letter
C
Fields of poppies, little pearls
GEm
All the boys and all the girls sweet-toothed
BmCG
Each and every one a little scary
Em
I said your name
C
I wore it like a badge of teenage film stars
GEm
Hash bars, cherry mash and tinfoil tiaras
BmC
Dreaming of Maria Callas
GEm
Whoever she is
C
This fame thing, I don't get it
G
I wrap my hand in plastic to try to look through it
EmBm
Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves
CG
I can take you far
Em
This star thing, I don't get it
DEmDEm
I'll take you over, there
D
Aluminum , tastes like fear
Em
Adrenaline, it pulls us near
DEm
It tastes like fear

Will you live to 83?
Will you ever welcome me?
Will you show me something that nobody else has seen?
Smoke it, drink
Here comes the flood
Anything to thin the blood
These corrosives do their magic slowly and sweet
Phone, eat it, drink
Just another chink
Cuts and dents, they catch the light
Aluminum , the weakest link
I don't want to disappoint you
I'm not here to anoint you
I would lick your feet
But is that the sickest move?
I wear my own crown and sadness and sorrow
And who'd have thought tomorrow could be so strange?
My loss, and here we go again
(Chorus)
Look up, what do you see?
All of you and all of me
Fluorescent and starry
Some of them , they surprise
I can't look it in the eyes
Seconal, Spanish fly, absinthe, kerosene
Cherry-flavored neck and collar
I can smell the sorrow on your breath
The sweat, the victory and sorrow
The smell of fear, I got it
(Chorus)
Pulls us near
Tastes like fear.
Nearer, nearer
Over, over, over, over
Yeah, look over
I'll take you there, oh, yeah
I'll take you there
Oh, over
I'll take you there
Over, let me
I'll take you there..
There, there, baby, yeah
