^AmI'm so confused, what is the ^Gfunction of this ego-sickness? ^CUselessly beleaguered by self-^Fhatred whisperings I can't deal with ^Emmourning at the carcass ^AmOf my failures any longer

Slipping on my own vomit while I

^DmTried to call you from a ^Gbathroom in Sao Paulo, but I was ^DmToo drunk to formulate any sort of ^AmEarthly language So much ^Cbitterness^F, too much bitterne^Css ^Em ^Am ^C

^DmOther people can say there is a ^Gtrue belief system ^DmBut all my life I've been betrayed by my ^Ammother's religion So much ^Cbitternes^Fs, too much bitte^Crness^E ^G ^F

^AmI'm so destroyed, what is the ^Gpurpose of this ego-sickness? ^CUselessly besieged by self-a^Fversion whisperings Man, I can't ^Emdeal with mourning at the carcass ^AmOf my failures any longer
