[Verse 1]
C My world is stirring sickly
BmEm Spits out our voices singing
CD "Sha la la la, oh, no no,"
BmEm To kingdom come so slightly
C Here in the void in your place
BmEm I twitch and tweak an illusion
CD To sit and stare so blankly
BmEm Until our hope is used up
[Pre-chorus]
CBmD Why do I always seem to need you when you're fleeing? CBmD Where do you go when I'm around? CBmD What have I done? What have I lost that's so defeating? CBmD And have the nerve to wear a crown?
[Chorus x4]

Oh Na na na na na na, hey! hey! hey!
[Verse 2] Some unguarded room A smoky figure fills me full Makes my head swell and ruin My family kneels at the pew They nod - 'We believe in what you're doing' I feel you rise above me The western landscape's towering And from my shell of a body The flowers blossom for picking
[Pre-chorus]
[Chorus x4]
[Bridge] **no chords** I've waited and waited for someone to take it Don't fight it, don't bother an inch for another Don't listen, don't hear them, they're in this together I've learned well, now hear me, there's much to be fearing I'm used to your absence, your faceless distraction
[Bridge/Chorus]
C I've painted your patterns but found them attractive BmEm Now I've been leaning towards a life far more candid CD Though lead through the dark with your eyes as my candles BmEm Where your life and my life's directions can wrangle C And all of a sudden you've left me to handle BmEm The reasons that never forbid me to stand tall CD And somehow, oh somehow, I'll find out the secret BmEm To staying alive without actually breathing
