[Intro]
C E x4
[Verse 1]
GThere is no rush when you don't belong
CTurns out we don't all
Fight like Amdogs in the end E
CMost of us want to roll out
CRoll under the grass
EYou are limbless, cartoon
ENo bridge in your song
CSpirulina won't cure my heartbreak
CI was a dreamer when I learned to take
EIn between her and the fireplace
CThere are factors that conditioned me Something in the canopy
EClearly
[Verse 2]
CAnd the blank ones
CCartwheel out of the furnace
The mould never cracked Eyou see
The girls in St EDenis
Still sleep on their Cbacks
Understood a Cfact
When you spoke in all your Emarvelous ideologies
The world is always Amat ease, at ease, at ease
Don't you Esee
[Verse 3]
And the Cdeaths on the highways
From Cdrinking at casinos
Feel so Enatural
Every day a Edice roll
Every way you Egamble
Where is something I Ccan handle?
And the world void of AmPetrov, our savior
We are tAmaught to savour
Everyone else'sC failures
EndlessEly
[Verse 4]
Even the Cgreatest
The very very Cgreatest, gave up, tapped out
Told all Eyou fuckers to lie down
Yet still Eyou found
Cathedrals of dissCent
Where does the robber Cgo
Where does the robber Ego to repent?
Tell Cme
[Instrumental]

[Verse 5]
GTill there you Amwere
You wouldn't buy a rouCnd
For your best Amfriend
See, it's trickled dEown
On you I don't depAmend
There you go then Cbye
Another end, Ambye
Infinitum Ambye
EThere you go Amthen, bye C
Am With such a heavy soundE
[Verse 6]
There is no rushC when you don't belong
Turns out Amwe don't all fight like dogs Cin the end
Most of us want toAm roll out
RollAm under the grass
You're limbless,E cartoon
No bridge in Eyour song
Make me wonderAm, again
Or make me learnE, to pretend
Make me wonderAm, again
Or make me learnE,
CTo pretend
AmMake me wonder
CAgain
Or make me learnE, to pretend
