[Verse 1]
Em A change of speedAsus4, a change of style,
C A change of sceneAsus2, with no regrets,
Em A chance to watchAsus4, admire the distance,
C Still occupied,Asus2 though you forget.
Em Different colours, different Asus4shades,
Over each mistakes were Cmade.
I took the Asus2blame.
Em Directionless so plain to Asus4see,
A loaded gun won't set you fCree,
So you Asus2say.
