Dm                                     Bb 
Serve or break the patterns that would be 
                      C 
Echo positions of the free 
       A        Bb   C A 
Middle child of eternity 
Dm                 F                Bb 
Caught between the branches and the roots 
                     C 
Move in any way that suits 
    A                 Bb  C A 
The creeping vines of anomie 

Bb A Dm 
        C            Bb A Dm  
I never wanted to believe 
        C                Bb A Dm 
I never asked if I could stay 
           C                A 
Switch the pressures you relieve 
                             Dm 
Forge your aggression in the clay 

G  A  Dm  F  G  Dm  C 
    Dm                       Bb 
The art that I buried in the earth 
                       C 
Sketching parallels to understand 
A           Bb          C A 
Why I can't share your love 
Dm           Bb 
Watchmen and makers in dissent 
         Dm             C 
I’m only building what I meant 
   F A    Bb         C A 
To do so many lives ago 


Bb A Dm 
        C            Bb A Dm  
I never wanted to believe 
        C                Bb A Dm 
I never asked if I could stay 
           C                A 
Switch the pressures you relieve 
                             Dm 
Forge your aggression in the clay
