Em D
Look what I've done, didn't make the best of that one
Am C D
I arrived feeling sure, but ended up all insecure
Em D
How does it feel to be lost in your creation
Am C D
Underneath the ?, a situation improvised

Hear me, on fear there's a sign of recognition
Am C D
? can survive, the spinning end of every night

Chorus:
D Em(w/F pull-off)
Too bad on me that I ?
Am C D Em(w/F pull-off)
A validation unsurprised
G Em
Cause I'm hungry for it now and I wanna hear a sound
Am C D Em(w/F pull-off)
Of recognition let me in
Am C D Em
Wind me up and watch me spin
