πΈ Intro:
Am C F C Em x2
πΈ 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 innerβdirected mourning
F
for the part of me that was selfless
C Em
but left without a warning.
Am
Well thatβs what I said, but maybe
C
itβs the fact that I detest
F
this obsession with myself that leaves
C Em
a mess inside my head.
Am
Oh shit
Iβm 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 wonβt see nothing with just
C Em
myself in my vision.
πΈ Chorus:
Am C F C x2
Riff:
Am C F C Em x2
πΈ 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
Iβm open like a vivisection.
C
Intense tendency to dwell, seething
Em
over missed connections.
Am C
Infected by my perceptions that Iβm a
nonβentity
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 Iβm still
believing that
Am
this is an elegy for concepts I
C
conceived in deep sleep
F
anβ 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.
πΈ Chorus:
Am C F C x2
Riff:
Am C F C Em x2
πΈ 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
Normalityβs 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 Iβm failing, naturally
decaying.
F C
Soon Iβll 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.
