Notes from the Author:
It took me a while to get this sounding right. There's a lot of nuances to the way I play it so I do
plan on uploading a youtube video to show you how I do it. In any case, I hope you enjoy and get to play this
absolute banger.

[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Breathing in t
he dark, lying
on its side
The ruins of t
he day, painte
d with a scar
And the more I
straighten ou
t, the less it
wants to try
The feelings s
tart to rot, o
ne wink at a t
ime
[Rift]
[Chorus 1]
Oh
Forgiving who
you are for wh
at you stand t
o gain
Just know that
if you hide,
it doesn't go
away
When you get o
ut of bed, don
't end up stra
nded
Horrified with
each stone on
the stage
My little dark
age
[Verse 2]
Picking throug
h the cards, k
nowing what's
nearby
The carvings o
n the face, sa
y they find it
hard
And the engine
's failed agai
n, all limits
of disguise
The humor's no
t the same, co
ming from deni
al
[Chorus 2]
Oh
I grieve in st
ereo, the ster
eo sounds stra
nge
I know that if
you hide, it
doesn't go awa
y
If you get out
of bed and fi
nd me standing
all alone
Open-eyed, bur
n the page
My little dark
age
[Chorus 3]
I grieve in st
ereo, the ster
eo sounds stra
nge
You know that
if it hides, i
t doesn't go a
way
If I get out o
f bed, you'll
see me standin
g all alone
Horrified on t
he stage
My little dark
age
[Bridge]
Giddy with del
ight, seeing w
hat's to come
The image of t
he dead, deade
nds in my mind
[Chorus 4]
Oh
Policemen swea
r to God, love
's seeping fro
m the guns
I know my frie
nds and I, wou
ld probably tu
/
rn and run
If you get out
of bed, come
find us headin
g for the brid
ge
Bring a stone,
all the rage
My little dark
age
[Chorus 2]
I grieve in st
ereo, the ster
eo sounds stra
nge
I know that if
you hide, it
doesn't go awa
y
If you get out
of bed and fi
nd me standing
all alone
Open-eyed, bur
n the page
My little dark
age
[Outro]
All alone, ope
n-eyed
Burn the page,
my little dar
k age
