C#                         F#
If you're so cold, refrigerate me
C#
We’ll talk at lightning speed
                    D#       C#
The kitchen sink is in our heads
                               D#
Don't ask me why we're separate
C#                       D#
I’ll never tell you anything

Chorus:
A#m        G#
I have you in the pictures
C#            F#
I've held you in the plan
A#m               G#
I'd just need to erase distance
C#                 Fm
Find a hole in the ocean
Swim backwards

The wait is brutal, just disintegrates
We talk in riddles, then give up and go
We are so vague
Don't ask me why we're separate
I'll never tell you anything real

Chorus

(Forget the hurt for somewhere else)
Pictures
(Don’t leave behind myself)
Plan
(Forget the hurt for somewhere else)
Distance
(Don’t leave behind myself)
Swim back
(Forget the hurt for somewhere else)
(Don't leave behind myself)

I have you in the pictures
I’ve held you in the plan
I'd just need to erase distance
Find a hole in the ocean
Swim back
I have you in the pictures
I've held you in the plan
I'd just need to erase distance
Find a hole in the ocean
Swim back

(Forget the hurt for somewhere else)
(Don’t leave behind myself)
I have you in the pictures
I've held you in the plan
(Forget the hurt for somewhere else)
(Don't leave behind myself)
I'd just need to erase distance
Find a hole in the ocean
Swim backwards
