FF
I found an old notebook filled up with pictures
C majorC
Found my friends in hospital beds with facial stitches
FF C majorC
We sat around the table, drinking hoping no one would ever die
FF
A augmentedA scribble of an elephant with
C majorC
"Why I can't draw and why everyone is evil"
FF C majorC
Written above it in faded black ink
FF
Heated debate about the legal system
C majorC
Let's have a rally, let's start a revolution
FF C majorC
Set fires under our feet and do our best not to stamp it out
FF
And all I can see through the rooftops and the chimneys
C majorC
Is the top of a billboard that reads "love"
FF C majorC
And I think it's an advert for nasal spray technology but in my current state it doesn't matter much

FF G+G FF G+G
And these things are consuming but there's more to me than lack of sleep and anxiety

And a woman with a face that slid right down to the top of her dress
C majorC
Told me I'd succeed because I'd been touched by a goddess
FF C majorC
If technology's taught me anything it's that writing is much easier than speaking
FF
That walking's best done in silence
C majorC
And rooftops are best left leaking
FF
And as we boarded up the walls where our fists had fell the night before
C majorC
I said, "I'm sorry that I shout
I'm not sorry that I don't put out
FF C majorC
I'm sorry I can't understand things unless I find music in them."
FF C majorC
And you know that you feel like I left you, but you left me without much of a choice
FF C majorC
I haven't learnt to draw but at least I never lost, never lost my voice
Bridge:

And these things are consuming but there's more to me than lack of sleep and anxiety
