lyrics

“extinguish me”
music and lyrics by esteban aguila

(Em7, Em6, Fmaj7, Em) x2

v.1
Em7 Em6
falling towards disaster
Fmaj7
now much faster
Em
than before

Em7 Em6
the body- not so precious
Fmaj7
more so infectiously
Em
insecure.

chorus:
F# Bm
it's no so easy when there's more than one wrong choice
Gmaj7
speaking words not from my own voice
Gdim7 Bbdim7 F#
(i breathe the flame that calls my name unto you)
Bm
and i don't feel that it's right of me
Gmaj7
to burn so bright and excitedly
Gdim7 Bbdim7 C#dim7 Edim7
extinguish me.

(Em7, Em6, Fmaj7, Em) x2
v.2
Em7 Em6
timing is not our problem
Fmaj7 Em
when we act stupid everytime
Em7 Em6
when will we pull this together?
Fmaj7
high now, not the weather

Em
that blows my mind

chorus:
F# Bm
it's no so easy when there's more than one wrong choice
Gmaj7
speaking words not from my own voice
Gdim7 Bbdim7 F#
(i breathe the flame that calls my name unto you)
Bm
and i don't feel that it's right of me
Gmaj7
to burn so bright and excitedly
Gdim7 Bbdim7 C#dim7 Edim7
extinguish me.

(Em7, Em6, Fmaj7, Em) x2

chorus:
F# Bm
it's no so easy when there's more than one wrong choice
Gmaj7
speaking words not from my own voice
Gdim7 Bbdim F#
(i breathe the flame that calls my name unto you)
Bm
and i don't feel that it's right of me
Gmaj7
to burn so bright and excitedly
Gdim7 Bbdim7 C#dim7 Edim7
extinguish me.
