Verse 1: (use Riff 2 for this verse) [Riff 2 at bottom of page]
Fears one by one, followed me home, and became reality
I m a failure I m a freak, I m a chip on your shoulder
The last thing you need.
Verse 2: (use verse 1 chords and Riff 2)
I shudder earthquakes at the thought of a life that s meaningless
And with such a promising past but you can always count on me
To choke in the end
Chorus:
I can t go on, deflate the air from both of my lungs
I ll be gone, long before daylight shows it s face...
Verse 3: (use verse 1 chords and Riff 2)
Honestly I m taking big strides, in a race towards normalcy
Where more is more and less is weak. Where love is crap
Emotion speaks for us all.
Verse 4: (use verse 1 chords and Riff 2)
What s really right? Who s who to say? I can survive alone again.
I figured that out the hardest way. The forecast calls for fire
But flames sound nice today.
Chorus: (use chorus chords)
I can t go on, deflate the air from both of my lungs
I ll be gone, long before daylight shows it s face...
It s old and worn-and it s mouth smiles no more
I m worth my weight in potting soil, maybe I ve tried to hard to care
Solo: (solo to come later)
- x4
Bridge:
I left a note on your bed. I don t recall what it said
Something like how I m completely miserable and I m better off dead.
Chorus:
I can t go on, deflate the air from both of my lungs
I ll be gone, long before daylight shows it s face...
It s old and worn-and it s mouth smiles no more
I m worth my weight in potting soil, maybe I ve tried to hard to care
Outro Chorus: (repeat 3x and fade out on 3rd)
I can t go on, (I can t go on)
deflate the air from both of my lungs
