[G#m] [C#m]
(muted) G#m
Oh and God, just leave that Abraham alone
He wants a [C#m]son, he wants a son
Everybody wants a [G#m]home
Though I'm [G#m]not quite sure if poor Isaac would agree
'My God,' he [C#m]said, 'what did I do
to make you wanna watch me [G#m]bleed?'
And I feel [G#m]sick tonight, I feel just like
The dancing flame on a funeral light
And I'm [C#m]not sure if I want you to save me
And I'd be [G#m]less uptight
if I knew the sight of blood
was just a weakness
And [C#m]not the whole reason
that you made me
Cause sometimes I think it [G#m]is
[G#m] [C#m]
Oh and [G#m]God, just go and leave me all alone
I'm not your [C#m]son, I'm not your son
Everybody dies [G#m]alone
Was this [G#m]world just not quite hard enough for you
I guess like [C#m]anyone you've got
Your own scores to settle [G#m]too
And I'm so [G#m]psed tonight, I feel just like
The last remaining Canaanite
And I [C#m]don't think that I will be returning
And if you [G#m]wanna see the irony
And the savage price of piety
There's a [C#m]lot of us who are going to be burning
How does it [G#m]feel?
[G#m] [C#m]
And the [E]sorrow that I know
when I'm [B]alone, I can't express
All these [E]darling angels singing in my [B]ear
And the [E]comfort of their touch,
it cuts right [B]through this emptiness
And it's [F#]everything I want and everything I [G#m]fear
But I don't fear [C#m]God!
[G#m]Hooooo[C#m]ooo x2
That [E]child was my friend
I spent a [B]long time with his curse
I can [E]feel him trembling beneath his [B]plea
I don't [E]know if there is water
All I [B]know is there's this thirst
And it [F#]might be for the best
Though I'm not quite sure if Isaac would [G#m]agree
