🎸 Intro:

Am  C  F  C Em x2



🎸 Verse :

Am                      C
Thought cycle gusty, a mind filled
with hot air.
      F
Must I care for nothing more than
  C          Em
myself? Do I dare
         Am
admit the fraught thoughts cavorting?
            C
Resorting in inner—directed mourning
       F
for the part of me that was selfless
   C              Em
but left without a warning.
    Am
Well that’s what I said, but maybe
         C
it’s the fact that I detest
    F
this obsession with myself that leaves
  C              Em
a mess inside my head.
            Am
Oh shit
I’m doing it again, repelling
 C
any potential friend
F                    C
revealing my innate ability to never
           Em
fully comprehend
Am
anything bigger than myself, but in
   C
the end I still pretend
      F
Condescending anyone polite enough to
             C          Em
choose to misspend their time
Am                           C
watching me as I achieve my secret
social mission.
   F                           C
To drain people with my boring stories
         Em
and opinions.
  Am
To see the bigger picture takes
C
intelligence and wisdom
F
but I won’t see nothing with just
  C          Em
myself in my vision.

🎸 Chorus:

Am  C  F  C  x2

Riff:

Am  C  F  C Em x2



🎸 Verse :

        Am
I go outside, a blitz of faces
    C
unwilling to confess to any
F
empathy
C            Em
endlessly incessantly declining any
pleasantries.
Am                          C
Heavily breathing, socially teething.
                    F
I’m open like a vivisection.
                      C
Intense tendency to dwell, seething
Em
over missed connections.
Am                C
Infected by my perceptions that I’m a
non—entity
F                           C
project my insecurity until intensity
  Em
is weaponry.
Am
Grieving a heavenly fiction I
   C
perceived whilst I was
dreaming.
 F
Awake! Freezing, wheezing
C                      Em
fundamentally I’m still
believing that
Am
this is an elegy for concepts I
C
conceived in deep sleep
F
an’ I helplessly watch them fade while
   C               Em
I awake
I try and keep them alive.
Am                C
Incomparable with life but eventually
they die
       F
and the brain I used to cultivate
 C               Em
reveals my lovers were a lie.

🎸 Chorus:

Am  C  F  C  x2

Riff:

Am  C  F  C Em x2



🎸 Verse :

Am                            C
When inside my mind I find a way to
replicate reality.
F                                  C
Through lucid dreaming I decimate the
              Em
limitations of actuality.
Am                     C
Capacity practically eternal
F
mortality external
C
no god but I investigate the
                      Em
blasphemous worship of the
nocturnal.
Am                               C
Internally existing without morality
                             F
creates profanity without the
travesty
                             C
and compared to the apathy of realness
   Em              Am
I reveal my own insanity.
               C
The majesty of fantasy protects me
     F
from tragedy.
                      C
Normality’s effects reject the agony
    Em
of rationality
    Am
but thankfully penetrates with no
C
avail to my unreality
F
an elaborately designed privately
C              Em
owned spiral galaxy.
Am                        C
Financially I’m failing, naturally
decaying.
F                                 C
Soon I’ll have no place safe to sleep
                Em
if these bills still need paying
Am                             C
displaying cravings with open eyes for
something mind expanding
   F
for when I drift away I see the
 C               Em
totality of understanding.

🎸 Outro:

Am  C  F  C  x2
