Lotus Eaters chords and lyrics - ODETTE

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Em]The plants grew along the road[G]
Like an unquenchable wildfire
I remember the times you used to
think I was [C]high
But I was too busy watching
the waves of emotion
Crash over people like the tides
in the [D]ocean
Push and [Em]pull
All you wanted was one more dance
I [G]must confess I had no chance
To renew myself [C]or redo myself
You think [G]I'm a crazy [C]mess
[D]Well, I [Em]agree

[Verse 2]
And you wanted to [G]know but I had
not answer for [C]you
Trapped under the ther
[G]momet[C]er
[Em]Temperature 102
Give me life, give [G]me love,
give me lust
I'm sorry [C]I know I ask for too much
[G]That's be[C]cause I know
It will never be enough
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[G]
[C]I[D][C]
[Em]remember when your hand
drew circles on mine
Your skin was [G]cold
We were battling time
I never [C]thought I'd become
something that I'm [G]not
But every[C]one does, every[D]one does
You think I'm [Em]crazy?
I think you think I'm crazy
[G]Well I guess I am,
I am certainly not a lady
But please [C]court me
Tell me you adore me
[G]Tell me there's noth[C]ing wrong
I'm a perfect human [D]being but
[Em]You never reciprocated
my desires
Even when [G]we forced it
We always knew we'd
be the liars who lied
[C]Too often, too much, too heavy
I'm [G]sorry I nev[C]er put you first
I [D]really hope you get [Em]me

[Verse 4]
And you wanted [G]to know
But I had no answer [C]for you
Trapped under the ther
[G]momet[C]er
[D]Temperature [Em]102
Give me life, give [G]me love, give me lust
I'm sorry [C]I know I ask for too much
[G]That's [C]because I know
It will never be [Em]enough[G][C][G][C]
It will never be [Em]enough
[G][C][G]

[Verse 5]
[C]
So I guess the moral to the story
There's no morals and no story
[G]In your iris lies the answer
Don't focus on the black centre
[C]Hurricanes can wash away the sins
That you perceive [D]as, to be [C]sins
My sins are spots and curls [D]and skin

[Verse 6]
I'm [Em]sorry
You know I'm sorry
I never [G]meant to alarm thee
And I know you're not as
strong as you think
You're [C]not a diamond warrior
Your feet grow roots [G]into the earth
And [C]I'm a tree as well
But I'm growing [D]much further
away from you
[Em]No one hears us
No one hears the words we
[G]scream
They're just whispers
Nightmares that scare little
chil[C]dren in the dark
Under the bed is [G]where it's hidden
[C]In the dark, dark, dar[D]k, dark, dark, dark
[Em]Keep me awake
I'm scared to fall asleep
You [G]used to make flowers fall
slowly from the ceiling
It was [C]magic
Some kind of superhuman
I [G]can't hold it in
[C]Bursting with light
But to [D]keep me away from the heat of the fire

[Verse 7]
I left
[Em]
And if you still want [G]to know
I still have no answer for [C]you
Trapped under the ther[G]mometer
Temperat[C]ure [Em]102
I'll give you life, I'll give you love
[G]I'll give you lust
I'm sorry I know I ask [C]for too much
That's because I know it
will never be [Em]enough[G]
It will never be [C]enough[G][C]
It will never be [Em]enough

[Outro 1]
[G][C][D]
