E
I'm awake in the afternoon
F#m7
I fell asleep in the living room
Asus2
It's one of those moments
C#m5 Asus2
When everything is so clear.


E
Before the truth goes back into hiding
F#m7
I wanna decide 'cause it's worth deciding
Asus2 C#m5 Asus2
To work on finding something more than this fear.

It takes so much out of me to pretend.

Tell me now, tell me how to make amends.

Don't you see I'm breaking down.

E B5
Oh lately, something here don't feel right
G#7 C#m9
this is just a half-life

No escape from time of any kind?

Interlude: C#m-B9-Asus2



E
I keep trying to understand
F#m7
This thing and that thing, my fellow man
Asus2 C#m5 Asus2
I guess I'll let you know when i figure it out.


E
But I don't mind a few mysteries
F#m7
They can stay that way it's fine by me
Asus2 C#m5 Asus2
But, you are another mystery i am missing.

D9 C#m5 Asus2
It takes too much out of me to pretend.

(Repeat Chorus)
