🎸 Verse 1:
Am F C
Tried self-destruction ’til I couldn’t function
Dm
I hurt myself, hated myself, it didn’t help me
Am F C
Tried self-control, tried letting go
Dm
To heal myself
I went to Hell
I hope you know
Am F C
What it’s like to fight your mind
Dm Am
When your skin still crawls at night
F C
I pretend that I’m all right ’til the lights go out
🎸 Chorus:
Am
Don’t got a need for sleep
E7
Stuck in a lucid dream
C
Daylight’s not for me
Dm
That’s why I’m nocturnal
Am
Hate when the morning comes
E7
This life that I’m running from
C
Can’t fly too close to the sun
Dm
That’s why I’m nocturnal

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Dm
That’s why I’m nocturnal

Lost in the static
I can’t go past it

I got this far

Keep circling to find another life worth chasing
F C
I pretend that I’m all right ’til the lights go out

That’s why I’m nocturnal
