[Verse]
             
She peeled his

              
 skin away, so


 every day he'

d cry
              
And in those t

            
ears he'd lie 

              
to find some p

   
eace
             
She broke from

              
 all his words


, but she was 

made of mercur

y,
              
She'd come tog

            
ether later pi

                 
ece by piece

             
And it became 

              
a game they pl


ayed, under th

e blankets
              
In the bed, pr

            
etending she w

              
as small and h

   
e was big
             
She became so 

              
small, he coul


d lift her, bo

dy and heart a

nd all.
              
He held her up

            
 naked, she wa

              
s just his fig

   
.

          
        Just h

  
is fig.

[Chorus]
              
She said "how

aybe you are".
              
She said "how

aybe you are".
              
She said "how 

            
do you know? M

             
aybe you a- a-

       
 a- a- are".
            
Maybe you a- a

        
- a- a- are".
          
Maybe you are
          
Maybe you are
          
Maybe you are
