Leave My Mistakes Alone

Intro: 
Em 
Em C  
Em 

 
Em 
   The underscore is bleeding crimson on the glass 
  Em                        G       {CM7} 
A phantom algorithm shadows where I pass 
   {CM7}         B7 
My syntax is a struggle, a cerebral game 
Em 
   But the logic in the wires only trades the name 
Em                               G             C 
  It strips the meaning from the marrow of the line 
         C                             
A cold redaction of everything that's mine 
 

 
N.C.               Em 
Leave my mistakes alone 
       Em 
In the clinical light let the phantom remain 
Em             Dm/F#  Em 
   Leave my mistakes alone 
  Em                            
I won't trade the soul for the pulse rate 
                C       
The songs of the binary fade 
 

 
Em 
   It's a, it's an existential crime 
     Em 
This digitizing fire 
                            C                  
  Burning down the bridge to climb a perfect wire 
N.C. 
(Leave my mistakes alone) 
 

 
Em 
   The semantic shifts like sand inside the gear 
                                G              {CM7} 
It filters out the silence that   I'm meant to hear 
           B7 
You want a polish that resembles a machine 
  Em 
A stairless version of the ghost within the scene 
Em                                  C/G             {CM7} 
  But the errors are the truth, the flaws are how I breathe 
                 {CM7}                   
I'm not you to unravel while I try to weave 
 

 
E5 
Zero, one, zero, one 
E5 
(It's not what I said, it's not what I said, 
E5 
(It's not what I said, it's not what I said) 
 

 
N.C.               Em 
Leave my mistakes alone 
       Em                     Em 
In the clinical light let the phantom remain 
Em             Dm/F#  Em 
   Leave my mistakes alone 
  Em 
I won't trade the soul 
                                  C       
For the pulse rate assaults of the binary faith 
                    Em 
(Leave my mistakes alone) 
 

 
     Em         Em 
It's a, it's an existential crime 
    Em 
The digitizing fire 

Burning down the bridge 
   C                  
To climb a perfect wire 
             N.C. 
(Leave my mistakes alone)

The word is mine
