My eyes opened to the emptiness.
E5 B5
My face was nothing but crooked lines.
C#5 B5 A5
I guess somewhere I really fell behind.

My mind was full, too much to figure out.

I was lost on the airplanes.
E5 B5 A5
I was high on the fast trains.
C#5 B5 A5
My heart was a bird in a small cage.

And I was drunk on the radio waves.

Too much coffee I’m not steady now.

Quiet apartment, ears are ringing loud.
C#5 B5 A5
The winter drowns out all the city sounds.

Hang my towel over the shower rod.

So many hours just hanging on.

So many chances have come and gone.
