Less yesterday and more today
Am D/F# C G
I gotta get my head on straight
C G D C
The tree trunks rot and people get caught
Am D/F# C G
Buying bullshit we don't need or want
Well full forests turn
to desert's hot dried dirt
The animals dig ditches,
they hide and watch our backs get burned
And less yesterday, and more today
Yea I gotta start livin' that way
And less yesterday, and more today
Yea I gotta get my head on straight
The ground shrinks fast
and the spot-lit strips of houses
They look like christmas lights she'd hang in her apartment
So I turn my head,
I try to watch the screen instead
But my eyes go fuzzy and start painting shapes all over the movie I'm watching
And they mix and match
my present with my past
But the colors are crisp and I press to hard so ink soaks straight through the back
And less yesterday, and more today
Yea I gotta start to live, to live that way
So less yesterday, and more today
Yea I gotta get my head on straight
Cause I keep ending up
exactly where I start
A roller rink I stumble through waiting for the songs to stop
And I used to drown it out
with empty space I found
But I turned my back and my life got too crowded so it's really hard to do that now
And less yesterday, and more today
Yea I gotta start livin that way
And less yesterday, and more today
Yea I gotta get my head on straight
Less yesterday and more today
Am D/F# C G
I gotta get my head on straight

The tree trunks rot and people get caught
Am D/F# C G
Buying bullshit we don't need or want
Well full forests turn

Yea I gotta start livin' that way
And less yesterday, and more today
Yea I gotta get my head on straight
The ground shrinks fast
and the spot-lit strips of houses
They look like christmas lights she'd hang in her apartment

I try to watch the screen instead
But my eyes go fuzzy and start painting shapes all over the movie I'm watching
And they mix and match
