Ryan's voice has been described as a "hushed rasp, with words catching like vows destined to be broken - one of modern music's most potent whispers."

[Intro]
G
[Verse]
G
He took it straight in the teeth
Em7
To find out what was underneath
Cadd9
You’re still alive even if you can’t breathe
G
Ah Joe, you’re a hero to me
G
Hey Lu, I’m in love with you
Em7
Your kind of work and that lean for a truth
Cadd9
What else were you gonna do?
G
Hey Lu, I’m in love with you
[Chorus]
Em7
And all the crowds, they call so loud
Cadd9
For hollow clowns
G
And their useless sentiments
Dsus4
It’s all so bent
Cadd9
Who’s paying the rent?
[Verse]
G
Aw Paul, why’d you disappear?
Em7
Was there something ringing in your ear?
Cadd9
Or did you just grow tired of tears?
G
Aw Paul, why’d you disappear?
G
Disenchantment is a ruthless bomb
Em7
But it never stopped Chrissie or Tom
Cadd9
You could be something, Anyone!
G
Battle born when the daylight comes
[Chorus]
Em7
And all the crowds, they call so loud
Cadd9
For hollow clowns
G
And their useless sentiments
Dsus4
It’s all so bent
Cadd9
Who’s paying the rent?
[Verse]
G
On a dark lit night
Em7
In the throes of another fight
Cadd9
I heard a song made me feel alright
G
Made me wanna explode into light
G
I don’t know if there’s more than this
Em7
A loud guitar, some comfort or a kiss
Cadd9
All I know is that it’s the shape of a fist
G
And it’s pounding inside your ribs
[Outro]
G
Until the wheels come off
Em7
No matter the hurt or the cost
Cadd9
Screaming hope in the land of the lost
G
Until the wheels come off
G
Until the wheels come off
Em7
No matter the hurt or the cost
Cadd9
Screaming hope in the land of the lost
G
Until the wheels come off
G
Until the wheels come off
Em7
Until the wheels come off
Cadd9
Until the wheels come off
G
In the land of the lost
