          D   Db/D       Am                    E7 
Please forgive, for they know not what they've done 
            Gm                 D               A    Asus   A7 
And if they did, they'd surely resurrect their trust 
      D               Db/D          Am              E7 
Promises were made to break and the family kept its end 
             Gm         D 
And now your answer, my friend 
   Gm             D                A    Asus   A7 
Is blowing in one head and out the other 
             G        D 
But you will find yourself 
         G             D 
You will recognize and realize 
G             D        F# 
Even when you can't forget 
    Bm                    A Bm               Ab Bm                   E7 
The times they tried you, things denied you, inside the big nameless house 
           G               D    G               D   Db/D   Bm   A7 
>From which everyone moves away, everyone moves away 
        D   Db/D    Am                E7 
Growing up       in severed states of mind 
    Gm              D               A    Asus   A7 
Can cause you to go blind more than twice 
              D    Db/D       Am                E7 
And now we're hurt     by the words we've never said 
    Gm               D 
The wounds you never bled 
     Gm             D                A    Asus   A7 
Just aggravate your head until their gone 
             G        D 
But you will like yourself 
         G          D 
You will verify and vocalize 
G             D        F# 
Even when you can't forget 
     Bm                   A Bm               Ab Bm                   E7 
That when you stayed you, they betrayed you, inside the big nameless house 
           G              D F#    G               D   Db/D   Bm   A7 
>From which everyone moves away,   everyone moves away 
A7           D                 A7              D 
Try to wipe away the traces of people, places, childhood spaces 
Bm               F#               G                A7 
Etched upon your memory, like the way that we were raised 
           D    Db/D          Am              E7 
In our backyard       we were left no time to think 
    Gm                   D             A    Asus   A7 
The blood that turned to ink spelled neglect 
               D    Db/D         Am           E7 
Now there's no sun       and the grass is overgrown 
    Gm                  D       Gm        D                  A    Asus   A7 
The sacred seed they've sown is utterly alone and scared to death 
             G        D 
But you will free yourself 
         G                D 
You will cut the cord and cauterize 
    G           D       F# 
And if you ever feel an urge 
   Bm                   A Bm 
To look behind you, let this remind you 
   Ab Bm                    E7 
We both grew up in the same house 
           G               D F#    G               D F# 
>From which everyone moves away,    everyone moves away 
G        D      G        D 
Everyone moves, everyone moves 
G               D    Db/D     D 
Everyone moves away
