C majorC
Well, I don't like talkin' to myself
FF
But someone's gotta say it, hell

I mean, things have not been going well

This time I think I finally fucked myself
C majorC
You see, the life I live is sickening

I spent a decade playing chicken with oblivion
G+G
Day to day, I'm neck and neck with giving in

Course I've been humbled by the void
FF
Much of my faith has been destroyed

I've been forced to watch my foes enjoy
G+G
Ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude
C majorC
And as the pace of life keeps quickening
FF
Beneath the bitching and the bickering

When I try to drown my thoughts in gin
G+G
I find my worst ideas know how to swim
Chorus:
FF
Well, a setback can be a setup
G+G
For a comeback if you don't let up

And the end of all wanting

Is all I've been wanting

And that's just the way that I feel

South Dakota got annoyed

When I talk to you about ceaseless feasts of schadenfreude

And a setback can be a setup

The end of all wanting
