Youïve lost before you start
C G
People in subways look nearly half-dazed to me

Renting tomorrow Investing in sorrow

No belief
Solo (like Vers)

Faces in didestreets, hiding like angels from grace
C
Selling you sorrow
Renting tomorrow

Youïre out of place

Though troubleïs knocking on my door

Somehow itïs just your smile
