F#mD
The problem I have with the soul contraption
AEBm
Swallowed up slowly like a bad reaction
F#mD
All around what you do and say
AEBm
Well the symptom falls further away
F#mD
You live in silence but you can't describe it
AEBm
So what's the point of talking at all
F#mD
The store bought injury the family cane
AEBm
Just another boy bad at the game
F#mDAEBm
This is when you need a friend to keep you moving around
F#mD
Cause all your thinking has made you slow
AEBm
You might be stopping out you know
A F#m
Frustrated fireworks inside your head
F#mD
There's a lit fuse smoking you caught instead
A F#m
What you're dealing but it's just a start
F#mD
Was a time since your problem was a poison dart
A F#m
And you act like a cowboy whatever's in my hat
F#mD
I'm a hardboiled hero and I'm not so bad
A F#m
But I didn't know when to run from this
F#mD
A proud fan is gonna see you shatter
AEBm
I know that there really isn't anything the matter
F#mD
Nothing is gonna be crying words
AEBm
They only want their voice to be heard
F#mD
They use it sometimes to show that they're around
AEBm
Or they build you up a theory like the walls of a town
F#mD
A tired and ancient ruler right now
AEBm
The neighborhood slaves are hardly skilled
A F#m
Open your parachute and drop your weight
F#mD
Float on down to the center and investigate
A F#m
I did my self requirement
F#mD
Better cop out hard or I'll leave right now
A F#m
Cause this feeling of loving I felt it in my chest
F#mD
Like the nighttime footsteps of an unknown guest
A F#m
I know it wasn't me I wasn't moving
F#mD
I felt thunder the rain was pouring
AEBm
I know it must be something wrong all this is restoring
F#mD
You don't have to live in a life's mistake
AEA
Stay in the center and wait
AEA
Stay in the center and wait
AEBm
Stay in the center and wait
