[Verse 1]
Once upon a time
I met you in a void
My ego disappeared
And I became a toy
The universe would play
All my favorite sounds
But as I looked around
I saw nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
Chrome
Take me to your chapel
I worship at your alter
I choose you at a crossroad
[Chorus]
I'm not a genie in a bottle
This pill's been too hard to swallow
Show me the way back home
And where I come from
You bathe the thorns with the roses
My grief is joy overthrown with all
The light that shines within
The walls of hopeless
[Verse 2]
They paint you as a drug
But I prefer a God
They've only met your dark
They've never met your love
I hold you like an oath
A sacred bond between
The heroes and the foes
They mean nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
Chrome
Take me to your chapel
I worship at your alter
I choose you at a crossroad
[Chorus]
I'm not a genie in a bottle
This pill's been too hard to swallow
Show me the way back home
And where I come from
You bathe the thorns with the roses
My grief is joy overthrown with all
The light that shines within
The walls of hopeless
[Post-Chorus]
The walls beneath us
The walls between us
I need you more than hoping
[Outro]
Hold me
I just want you, ketamine
Rockabye my soul to sleep
Kiss away these angry dreams
(Ah-ah)
Hold me
I just want you, ketamine
Rockabye my soul to sleep
Kiss away these angry dreams
(Ah-ah)
