Intro:
Dbsus2
I didn’t expect to see you here –
I mean outside, smoking.
Gb2Gb2
I’m more of a nicorette girl these days.
AbAb
I’m joking.
Dbsus
I mean – I did quit.
GbGb
But who feels like joking now?
AbAb/GbGb Gb2Gb2 AbAb
I’ll see you your scowl
AbAb
And raise you a furrowed brow.
Anyway.
Dbsus2
Anyway.
AbAb
Dbsus
Do you remember how we used to read
AbAb
Rilke, Joyce?
Dbsus
And we barely understood it,
AbAb Dbsus2
But it gave us a voice
Or a language…
AbAb
I don’t read poetry anymore.
Dbsus 
Db2Db2
But if I did,
Absus2 Bbm9
I’d be reading it tonight for sure.
Absus2 AbAb Absus2
Oh. Oh.
Dbsus2 AbAb
I keep thinking about how the timing seems false.
Dbsus2 AbAb
How some days seem faster than my fucking pulse.
Dbsus2
And others go so slow.
Gb2Gb2
Like this morning
Absus2
Feels like a month ago.
Gb2Gb2/
BbBb Absus2
Oh. Oh.
Gb2Gb2/BbBb Absus2
Oh. Oh.
Absus2
I feel like I’m underwater.
I feel like I’m underwater.
AbAb
I feel like I’m underwater.
Anyway.
Dbsus2
Anyway.
AbAb
There’s this building you pass
AbAb
On the subway to Queens.
AbAb
It’s on the L or the R or the one that’s green.
AbAb
It’s covered in tags,
AbAb
Bright hieroglyphics.
AbAb
These fifteen-year-olds –
They’re so fucking prolific.
Dbsus2
I’m commuting,
Dbsus2
I’m eating my goddamn apple
And they’re secretly painting their Sistine Chapel.
Gb2Gb2/BbBb AbAb/BbBb Gb2Gb2/BbBb
But whatever,
Absus2 AbAb Absus2 Gb2Gb2 AbAb/GbGb GbM9
It’s like they know their odds.
DbDb/
FF
If you're gonna die young,
Ebm7 Absus2 Gbsus2 AbAb Gbsus2
You'd better live like gods.
AbAb Gbsus2
Gods.
AbAb Gbsus2
Gods.
And me?
Bbm11
I’m not doing anything.
AbAb
I’m not helping or cleaning.
Bbm11
I’m not even crying.
I’m not doing anything.
Absus4
She’d be so goddamn helpful.
AbAb/GbGb
Well, fuck her for dying ’cause I,
I’m not writing her elegy.
Ab2Ab2
Not me.
AbAb/GbGb
I’m not writing that down.
Ab7sus4 Bbm11
They would scrawl her name on a city wall
AbAb
But I’m a fucking clown.
Gb2Gb2
I’m making jokes
So I don’t drown.
Gb2Gb2
I feel like I’m underwater.
AbAb
I feel like I’m underwater.
Gb2Gb2
I feel like I’m underwater.
AbAb
I feel like I’m underwater.
Gb2Gb2
Like the whole world is underwater.
AbAb
Like I’m screaming out underwater.
Gb2Gb2 AbAb
I feel like I’m underwater these days.
Gb2Gb2 Dbsus2
Anyways.
Anyway.
Dbsus2
I didn’t expect to see you here.
I mean – thanks for coming.
Gb2Gb2 AbAb
I thought you’d oppose the use of religious rites as numbing.
Dbsus2
I mean – it is dumb.
GbGb AbAb/GbGb
But what if she can hear them pray?
Gb2Gb2 AbAb
I mean what the fuck do we know?
AbAb
Who are we to say?
AbAb
If there was anyway.
Dbsus2
Anyway.
