I unravel [Em]myself all in [Dm]slow motion

I will water the [Em]ground where I stand
So the flowers can [Dm]grow back again
‘Cause [Am]just like the seed, everything wants to [C]live
We are burning our [Em]fingers, but we learn and for[Dm]give ah

[F]Feed me sunlight, feed me air, in a place where nothing matters
[F]Feed me truth and [Am]feed me prayer, dancing around a shooting star
And every cell remembers what have taken us this far
[F]Feed me sunlight, feed me air, I see images of killer whales


[F]Feed me truth and [Am]feed me prayers, sleeping in a desert trail
[F]Dreaming of a parallel world where nothing ever hurts
[Am]Dreaming of a parallel world where nothing ever hurts
[F]Ahhh [Am]ahhh [F]ahh [Am]ahhh
