Capo: 4
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo on fourth fret
For more advanced players, I'd recommend eschewing the capo in favour of open chords so you can play the
melody for the verse, which is simple, and pretty easy to play.

[Intro]
Amx2 C F C Em
[Verse]
AmThought cycle gusty a mCind filled with hot air.
Must I Fcare for nothing more than mysCelf? Do I dEmare
admit the Amfraught thoughts cavorting? Resorting in Cinner-directed mourning
for the Fpart of me that was selfless but Cleft without a Emwarning.
Well Amthat’s what I said, but maybe it’s the fCact that I detest
this Fobsession with myself that leaves a Cmess inside my Emhead.
Oh shit I’m Amdoing it again, repelling aCny potential friend,
revealing Fmy innate ability to Cnever fully compreEmhend
Amanything bigger than myself, but in the Cend I still pretend.
CondescFending anyone polite enough to choose to missCpend their Emtime
Amwatching me as I achieve my sCecret social mission.
To dFrain people with my boring sCtories and opiniEmons.
To Amsee the bigger picture takes iCntelligence and wisdom,
but I Fwon’t see nothing more with just mysCelf in my visEmion.
[Chorus]
Am C F C
[Verse]
Amx2 C F C Em
I go outsAmide a blitz of faces unwilCling to confess to any empFathy,
endlessly incessantlCy declining aEmny pleasantries.
AmHeavily breathing, socially Cteething. I’m open like a vivisFection.
Intense tendency to dweCll, seething Emover missed connections.
AmInfected by my perCceptions that I’m a non-entity,
Fproject my insecurity until Cintensity is Emweaponry.
AmGrieving a heavenly fiction I percCeived whilst I was dreaming.
AwFake! Freezing, wheezing, fuCndamentally I’m still bEmelieving that,
Amthis is an elegy for concepts I Cconceived in deep sleep,
as I Fhelplessly watch them fade whilst I aCwake, I try and Emkeep them alive.
AmIncomparable with Clife but eventually they die
and the Fbrain I used to cultivate reCveals my lovers Emwere a lie. |
[Chorus]
Am C F C
[Verse]
Amx2 C F C Em
AmWhen inside my mind I find a wCay to replicate reality.
FThrough lucid dreaming I decimate tChe limitations of Emactuality.
AmCapacity practically etCernal, mortality exFternal,
no god but I investigate Cthe blasphemous worship of Emthe nocturnal.
AmInternally existing without moralCity creates profanities without the Ftravesty
and compared to the apathy of Crealness I rEmeveal my own insAmanity.
The majesty of fCantasy protects me from tFragedy.
Normality's effects rejCect the agony of raEmtionality.
Which tAmhankfully penetrates with no aCvail to my unreality,
an elaboFrately designed privately oCwned spiral galEmaxy.
AmFinancially I’m failing, nCaturally decaying.
FSoon I’ll have no safe place to slCeep if these bills stEmill need paying,
Amdisplaying cravings with open eCyes for something mind expanding
for Fwhen I drift away I see the toCtality of undersEmtanding.
