[Verse 1]
Am
For the time being
Em
I will still avoid my own questions
C
And we both bury that history deep
G
But you know I can hold my breath forever
Am
For the time being
Em
You are still a perfect reminder of what
C
All of these scars on my arms are for
G
If I can hold myself together
[Chorus]
Dm
And I choke myself on sacred vapour
Am
Waiting on some holy favour
C G
Basking in the solace of regret
Dm
And it seems my hell is your high water
Am
Wash me clean again
C G
Before I pull myself beneath the waves
[Verse 2]
Am
When thе mouth of infinity
Em
Buries its teeth in me
C G
I'll smile through thе agony for you
Am
And I know you still bear the weight
Em
of your own existence
C G
And you'll never bear the weight of two
[Chorus]
Dm
And I choke myself on sacred vapour
Am
Waiting on some holy favour
C G
Basking in the solace of regret
Dm
And it seems my hell is your high water
Am
Wash me clean again
C G
Before I pull myself beneath the waves
[Bridge]
Am
For the time being
Em
I will admit my defeat again
C
I will accept that I can't pretend
G
We will ever be together
[Breakdown]

For the time being
I will still avoid my own questions
And we both bury that history deep
But you know I can hold my breath forever
For the time being
You are still a perfect reminder of what
All of these scars on my arms are for
If I can hold myself together
And I choke myself on sacred vapour
Waiting on some holy favour
Basking in the solace of regret
And it seems my hell is your high water
Wash me clean again before I pull myself beneath the waves
When the mouth of infinity
Buries its teeth in me
I'll smile through the agony for you
And I know you still bear the weight of your own existence
And you'll never bear the weight of two
And I choke myself on sacred vapour
Waiting on some holy favour
Basking in the solace of regret
And it seems my hell is your high water
Wash me clean again before I pull myself beneath the waves
For the time being
I will admit my defeat again
I will accept that I can't pretend
We will ever be together
I can't hold myself together
