There's no way out and there's no way back

Some troubles dare to lose you sleep

I started thinkin' that I'm in too deep

The wheels of life will stretch your face

I got the message that I'm in too deep

Blows my mind

Melting in the sun (su-u-un)

Starts to shine (shi-ine)

Then suddenly it's gone
Am B D
Melting in the su-u-u-un
VERSE
E B/E A/E E
Stayed up and wondered what was goin' on
E B/E A/E E
Shifted and pissed up and silent and gone

Reasons for promises that no one could keep
A G D E | G D E |
I got the picture and I'm in too deep

Blows my mind

Don't matter who you are, don't matter where you've been

You can buy your freedom, but it don't come cheap

No doubt about it, now I'm in too deep
