The Artist Alesana
What is wrong with her eyes?
[Dm]A glossy stare that won't leave me[F] be starts my blood running cold.
[Bb]A gaze that could make hell freeze over...
I have to [Dm]understand she's [A]gone...
But she's n[Dm]ot!
Don't you tell me that she is de[F]ad!
Watch her lips softly move [Bb]because she's still whispering to me!
...And something h[Dm]ere is not quite ri[F]ght...[A] [Bb]
[Dm]Skin so [F]cold beneath my touch as I [Bb]brush back her hair and close her [C]eyes.
But [Dm]I cannot s[F]tand to turn away.
When I [Bb]do, she'll be gone...
It's [C]frightening...
[Bb]Sweaty hands will [Bb]fail to lock the door[A]...
They'll [A]be here soon.
I [D]wish I could [E]keep my [F]teeth from [G]grinding.
I [D]wish I'd [E]stop look[F]ing behi[G]nd me.
[Bb]Running now will o[Bb]nly make it wo[A]rse...
They'll [A]be here soon.
I [D]wish I could s[E]hake the a[F]wful f[G]eeling.
I [F]wish my m[G]ind would st[A/E]op...
[Bb]Maybe I am crazy and my [C]mind is trying to deceive me.
[Dm]As the ground vanishes I wonder will the sky be the next to fail me?
[Bb]Paint abandons canvas.
And my [C]brush can't seem to start again from scratc[Dm]h.
As I watch everything unravel, why should I even try to stop the coll[Bb]apse?
I won't...
[Dm]Shaking as I [F]rest her body down.
No one [Bb]knows, only me...
It's f[C]rightening...
[Bb]Sweaty hands will [Bb]fail to lock the door[A]...
They'll [A]be here soon.
I [D]wish I could [E]keep my [F]teeth from [G]grinding.
I [D]wish I'd [E]stop look[F]ing behi[G]nd me.
[Bb]Running now will o[Bb]nly make it wo[A]rse...
They'll [A]be here soon.
I [D]wish I could s[E]hake the a[F]wful f[G]eeling.
I [F]wish my m[G]ind would st[A/E]op...
[Bb]Maybe I am crazy and my [C]mind is trying to deceive me.
[Dm]As the ground vanishes I wonder will the sky be the next to fail me?
[Bb]Paint abandons canvas.
And my [C]brush can't seem to start again from scratc[Dm]h.
As I watch everything unravel, why should I even try to stop the coll[Bb]apse?
[D]There'[E]s a ma[F]dman g[G]laring [D]straig[E]ht at [F]me![G]
D E F G D E F G 2x D E F G
Oh I know I've seen his face before...
[D]I am s[E]ure I'[F]ve see[G]n his f[F]ace b[G]efore[A/E]...
[Bb]Maybe I am crazy and my [C]mind is trying to deceive me.
[Dm]As the ground vanishes I wonder will the sky be the next to fail me?
[Bb]Paint abandons canvas.
And my [C]brush can't seem to start again from scratc[Dm]h.
As I watch everything unravel, why should I even try to stop the coll[Bb]apse?
I won't...
