Verse 1:
E5 D5p D5
The traffic's backed for miles on these quiet suburban roads
D5p
while the rubber necking strangers are dying to see this victim's
E5 D5p D5
wounds cause he’s all alone with his notebooks and poems
B5
in this empty grave where he wrote all of his secrets that became his
A5 E5 G5
lyrics with no intent to show anyone
Chorus:
B9 D5 B9 D5
and we give and we give
G5 D5
but its all for nothing
G5 D5
its all for nothing
B9 D5 B9 D5
we try to resist but I give
G5 D5 G5 D5
everything and its all for nothing
Verse 2:
E5 D5
so the panic sets and cycles his mind for restless sleep
E5
while the blood sucking leeches contaminate every line they read
D5
just leave him alone in this dark room this white sheet tightly wrapped
B5 A5 E5 G5
cocoon cause its no secret I fucking need this Like I don’t need anyone
(Repeat Chorus twice)
Bridge:
Part 1:
D5
It's like I’m falling asleep with my eyes open
G5
shutting down and off the lights
E5
cause after all of this it’s all or nothing
D5 G5 D5
still I wouldn’t try to fight
Repeat Bridge: Part 1 while singing this line with another vocalist
and you'll lie to all your friends
about sights you never saw
and you'll preach to all the press
about what you don't know at all
at all
Interlude: D5-G5 (x2) 1 strum each power chord
Part 2: Another vocalist singing while plucking the guitar 2
D5 (x4) G5 (x4)

D5
So let me drown so I can breathe again I’m through choking and
G5
suffocating on alter egos and alterior motives which weigh you down and
D5
take control of the way you are and the things that you need the life
G5
you live and the dreams that you dream distort and blur all in slow
D5
motion they broke you down and now you're broken and it’s sadder than
G5
the saddest movie I ever saw but without the beauty so I stopped
watching, I stopped caring I lost all interest and I stopped wearing
D5
these plastic smiles I’ll wash my hands clean I'll forget that you
G5
forgot about me and I’ll live the life, the big city feeling
D5
cause it’s better than suburban dreaming Living off the friends that
G5
hate you who talk shit on me like I don't know who my real friends are
D5
anymore no I don’t know you anymore and it’s sadder than the saddest
G5
movie I ever saw but without the beauty so I'll stopped watching, I'll
stopped caring
(First vocalist singing in background)
spill the ink and spill your guts again
spill the ink and spill your guts again!!!
(Repeat Bridge Part 1)
