Verse 1:
Am                  Dm
Late last night, or was it morning?
Am          Dm
Outside the rain was pouring
Am         Dm            G
I stumbled out, I hit the ground
Am                         Dm
It's a hell of a scene but there's no story
Am          Dm
Designed in all its glory
Am         Dm               G
To set you up and knock you down

Chorus:
F         C          F       C
Just a reflection on my bitterness
G             D        G          D
Why plant the seed and not do the rest?
F           C             F        C
Just a distraction from the meaningless
G          D          G          D
I'd rather bleed than settle for less


Interlude:
Am     x4
G C F


Verse 2:
Am                      Dm
Was told at the time to just keep going
Am             Dm
You'll fly but don't stop rolling
Am            Dm               G
Reach for the moon and hit the ground
Am               Dm
Is this a chip upon my shoulder?
Am       Dm
Gs heavy as a boulder
Am           Dm               G
When all the world owes you a crown


Chorus:
F        C            F      C
Just a reflection on my emptiness
G             D      G          D
You don't succeed by chasing success
F       C          F            C
No reputation is worth all this mess
G          D          G          D
I'd rather bleed than settle for less


Instrumental:
Am Dm Am Dm Am Dm G (x2)


Chorus:
F        C            F       C
Just a reflection on my happiness
G       D             G            D
Only compete with yourself at your best
F      C            F           C
A separation from the self I possess
G           D      G          D
Just let it be and settle for less
