to the whole human family, there would not be one smiling face on Earth.
(Abraham Lincoln, letter to John T. Stuart, January 1841)''

Everything makes me nervous and nothing feels good for no reason
G Em C
Waking up, it's rarely worth it - the same dark dread every morning
G Em C
Senior year here in Mahwah, a new world just around the corner
G Em C
Leave me behind, let me stagnate, in a fortress of solitude

Smoking's been okay so far, but I need something that works faster

I used to look myself in the mirror at the end of every day
D C G
But I took the one thing that made me beautiful and threw it away
G Em
I was a river, I was a tall tree, I was a volcano
D C G
But now I'm asleep on top of a mountain, I've been covered in snow

D C G

G Em
But there is another down in a dungeon who never gave up the fight

G Em C
"You will always be a loser, you will always be a loser..." on and on and then ..
G Em C D
"You will always be a loser, you will always be a loser now...."
