G C F
Hurled to the center of the earth again
G Em
The place where it's hot love
F G
You know it hurts to breathe in
G Em Am
And the watershed you balance on is begging it
?? D
Well did he ever know? Will he ever know?
G C F
The trees in the moonshine are a dark lattice
G Em F G
So you catalogue every angle you notice
G Em Am
In a vacuum you are charged to record this

So you won't make it easy on me
CHORUS:

I can't go into this no more
G C
It puts too many thorns on my mind

And they're all standing up for their rights

Born on a desert floor, you've the deepest thirst
G Em F G
And you came to my sweet shore to indulge it
G Em Am
With the wan and drilling eyes of an orphan

But there was not enough, there is not enough
G C F
Out of a gunnysack fall red rabbits
G Em F G
Into a crucible to be rendered an emulsion
G Em Am
And we can't allow a chance they'd restore themselves
?? D C
So we can't make it easy on you
CHORUS #2

A reward for letting nothing under their skin

So help me I don't know, I might
D F? G
Just give the ole Dark Side a try
BRIDGE
C D
Don't cast your willing eyes on the shore
F? G
'til we even the score

I still owe you for he hole in the floor

And the ghost in the hall

Yeah, who makes the call? Who makes the call?
