[Verse 1]
F7 Em7
The sun is up, bright and blinding to my tired eyes
F7 C7
The daylight’s no excuse for the cold winter
F7 E7
Beneath the layers I’m clothed in
Am7 C/Bb
Behind the masks, I’m feeling
F7 Fm
Cold, and I’m shivering
[Verse 2]
F7 Em7
The weather’s unforgiving but nothing’s really new
F7 C7
It’s been this way for most of my time here
F7 E7
The walls keep coming closer to me
Am7 C/Bb
They hug me so tightly
F7 Fm
So I feel warmly suffocated
C7 F7 C7 F7
[Chorus 1]
Dm7 E7
The triangles that form a square are just
Asus2 C7/G
Fragments of a thing trying to keep itself together
Dm7 E7
If we could just see it for what it is
Asus2 C7/G
Life could be so much better
Am/F#
So can I be real with you?
Dm7 E7
Before someone tells me that I have to be a square again
Dm7 E7 Asus2
How ’bout you take a second look at the pieces within;
C7/G Am/F# F7 Dm7/G
The shapes, the lines, and the angles that make up a shattered quadrilateral
[Verse]
F7 Em7
I can hardly remember what it feels like to be comfy
F7 C7
In a weather that drowns my frowns and blows my mind (in a good way)
F7 E7
The prickling, icy, fierce, unfeeling season’s never-ending
F7 Fm
Perpetually tormenting my being
C7 F7 C7 F7
[Chorus 2]
Dm7 E7
The triangles that form a square are just
Asus2 C7/G
Fragments of a thing trying to keep itself together
Dm7 E7
If we could just see it for what it is
Asus2 C7/G
Life could be so much better
Am/F#
So can I be real with you?
Dm7 E7
Before someone tells me that I have to be a square again
Dm7 E7 Asus2
How ’bout you take a second look at the pieces within;
C7/G Am/F# F7 Dm7/G
The shapes, the lines, and the angles that make up a shattered quadrilateral
[Verse]
F7 Em7
One day the sun will shine and it won’t be cold
F7 C7
And I’ll be free to swelter in the heat
Asus2 C7/G Am/F# F7
I’ll be tossing layers and the glue welding my walls shut will finally melt
Asus2 C7/G Am/F# F7 Fm F7
It will be warm outside and I’ll no longer be shivering in daylight
