[Verse 1]
E
Tell me again about how it hurts
Am
Being awfully loud for an introvert
E
Get out of my room, smile wiped clean
Am
Isn't it weird to be so mean?
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E
I'm guessing that I've grown horns
E
I guess I'm human no more
Am
I can tell I've rotted in your brain
    E
Oh, how easily passion twists
E
You think I'm a crazy bitch
Am
I craft my words to fit your head
       C              D
'Cause no one listens to the dead
 
[Chorus]
E
  So maybe I will talk to you
E7
  The only way I know how to
A
Mhm, I've said my speech
A
Mhm, through sharpened teeth
Am                                            C
You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin
       D
Please let the devil in
 
[Verse 2]
E
A meter apart, we blankly stare
Am
We shout in our heads, "Are you still in there?"
E
Well this ends bad then, we knew it would
Am
So we won't eat our words, 'cause they don't taste good
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E
I'm guessing that I've grown horns
E
I guess I'm human no more
Am
I can tell I've rotted in your brain
    E
Oh. how easily passion twists
E
You think I'm a crazy bitch
Am
A thousand words are left unsaid
       C              D
'Cause no one listens to the dead
 
[Chorus]
E
So maybe I will talk to you
E7
The only way I know how to
A
Mhm, I’ve said my speech
A
Mhm, through sharpened teeth
Am
You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin
 
E
Oh, I think it might be worth a try
E7
Oh, am I ready to let this die?
A
Mhm, a monster's here
A
Mhm, you plug your ears
Am                                   C
But hey, you might just listen to it sing
       D
Please let the devil in
 
[Bridge]
E                E7
We won't eat our words 
A                   Am
They don't taste so good 
E                E7
We won't eat our words 
A                   Am
They don't taste so good 
 
[Rap]
E
Look, we know that I've seen this before 
E7
High and mighty, at the top of your list
A
Adoring every move, now my rank is sinking
Am
But we're both guilty of black or white thinking
E
And through my red eyes, you look pale
E7
All of your scars are looking more like scales
A
Two ugly creatures, two sinister preachers
Am
Blind to the past, like a couple of monsters
N.C.
Just a couple of monsters!
 
[Chorus]
E
So maybe I will talk to you
E7
The only way I know how to
A
Mhm, you've said your speech
A
Mhm, through sharpened teeth
Am
You break the rules and spikes grow from your skin
 
E
Oh, I think it might be worth a try
E7
Oh, am I ready to let this die?
A
Mhm, a monster's here
A
Mhm, you plug your ears
Am                                   C
But hey, you might just listen to it sing
       D                E
Please let the devil in
 
[Refrain]
E
We won't eat our words 
E7
They don't taste so good 
A
We won't eat our words 
Am                       E
They don't taste so good

the rap lyrics are, Look, I know that we've seen this before High and mighty, at the top of your list Adoring every move, now my rank is sinking But we're both guilty of black or white thinking And through my red eyes, you look pale All of your scars now looking more like scales Two ugly creatures, two sinister preachers Blind to the past, like a couple of monsters; Just a couple of monsters!
