Verse 1:
G#m F#
I’m taking over my body, back in control, no more shotty,
E B/F#
I bet a lot of me was lost, ‘t’s uncrossed and ‘I’s undotted,
G#m F# E
I fought it a lot and it seems a lot like flesh is all I got,
B/F#
Not anymore, flesh out the door, swat,
G#m F#
I must’ve forgot, you can’t trust me,
E
I’m open a moment and close when you show it,
B/F#
Before you know it I’m lost at sea,
G#m F#
And now that I write and think about it,
E
And the story unfolds,
B/F#
You should take my life, you should take my soul.

Verse 2:
G#m F#
Remember the moment you know exactly where you’re going,
E
‘Cause the next moment, before you know it,
B/F#
Time is slowing and it’s frozen still,
G#m F#
And the window sill looks really nice, right?
E B/F#
You think twice about your life, it probably happens at night,
G#m F#
Right? Fight it, take the pain, ignite it,
E B/F#
Tie a noose around your mind loose enough to breathe fine
and tie it,
G#m F#
To a tree, tell it, “You belong to me,
E
This ain’t a noose, this is a leash,
B/F# E
And I have news for you, you must obey me.”

Sounding down the mountain range of my left-side brain,
G#m B/F# F# C#m/G#
You are surrounding all my surroundings,
E G#m B/F# F# C#m/G
Twisting the kaleidoscope behind both of my eyes.

E B/F#
Lyrics that mean nothing, we were gifted with thought,
G#m F# X4
Is it time to move our feet to an introspective beat,

It ain’t the speakers that bump hearts,
B/F#
it’s our hearts that make the beat.
