repeat 4 times (pause)
How many times have I noticed that our eyes hardly ever meet?
From your judgment seat I can feel the anger for my very being.
Fill me in on when you became such a big part of my life.
That I should bother with all your lies designed to bring me down.
Wrong again don't depend on any reaction again!
[Verse]
Em G C
I remember the icy walls that shot up from nowhere,
Em G C
and I can see every lie you've ever told yourself.
Em G C
You bleed me dry and I don't ask why but I'm left with the dust.
Em G C
Judas kiss I dismiss thank you all for this I am untouched (I am)
[Chorus]
G C Em C
Wait again I'm not through with the screaming!
G C Em C
I contend that you've got nothing better to do.
Em D C G
I'd trade my life for a barrel of gold,
Em D C G
find someone else before I get too old,
Em D C G
if I live my life for aesthetic gain
Em D C G
will you repay me with all your shame?
[Verse 2]
I can see every light inside your brain go on every time that I walk by for nods and whispers.
Your comfort in my suffering is no longer disturbing,
I'm lost beyond your petty stopwatch in life's real time (lifes real).
[Chorus 2]
Wait again I'm not through with the screaming!
I contend that you've got nothing better to do.
I'd trade my life for a barrel of gold,
find someone else before I get too old,
if I live my life for aesthetic gain will you repay me with all your shame?

Don't get up I was only leaving the room.
When the door of your judgment swings back around again,
maybe I'll stop to watch your act and I'll go on my way!
[G]
D Em C
I've seen quite enough of too many childish games.
G D Em C
I'm ashamed of every moment and that I ever gave them the time of day.
G D Em C G
All the worst enemies are somehow always friends that used to be...
