Verse 1:
Gb
Get in your zone
Gb
Don't even look at them at all
Ebm                             D
Their shallow observations will only stall the transformation
Gb
You've become art
 
How could they even start to see
Ebm                         D
Beyond your presentation when they've got no imagination?
 

A      B                D
But I admit it would be easier
A     B                   D
To be relieved of all this shame
                                      A
And not have to wear it on my sleeve
    B                 D
I imagine it's quite nice for you
A               B
To have so many chances
       D                 B
Oh so many ways to be redeemed
 
Verse 2:
           Gb E D Db
But as for me
   Gb                                              Ebm
I can only be forgiven if I'm givin' myself up to you
            D
On a silver serving tray
Gb
Must I bare myself to the stabbing of your knife and gnashing teeth
Ebm                              D
While our lovely company appears so entertained?
 

    A         B                 D
Ah, yes, good etiquette demands
     A              B                D
I remain soft and accessible in the face of my own ending
A           B        D
So I will try to be discreet
          A              B
Through my full-blown implosion
          D                B                      Gb E D Db
I'll stay golden and retreat into my sweetest fantasy
 
Bridge:
    Gb                 Ebm
The one where you are crying
               B         Db
And I don't do anything at all
    Gb                  Ebm
The one where you are crying
               B             Db
And I don't do anything at all
   Dbm      B        D
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
 
Verse 3:
   A                   B                D
My world has turned so cold but I won't cry
          A         B                D
Cause icicles don't soften when they die
 
So why should I?
           B
Why should I?
 
Chorus:
    A              B               D
Oh, icicles don't soften when they die
     A            B
They sharpen into sabers
         D
And they stab you in the eye
A             B                D
Icicles don't soften when they die
     A            B
They sharpen into sabers
         D
And they stab you in the eye
 

        A             B                 D
Oh, oh, icicles don't soften when they die
     A            B
They sharpen into sabers
         D
And they stab you in the eye
A             B                D
Icicles don't soften when they die
     A            B
They sharpen into sabers
         A               B
And they stab you in the eye
       Gb E D Db
In the eye
