Verse:
E5One (022xxx@1)is for envy and one just for spite
    C5The (x355xx@1)cuts in my heart, they show in your eyes
G5Don't (355xxx@1)make it better
                             D5The (xx023x@1)twisting knife turns all by itself, on to someone else

E5Your (022xxx@1)self-liberation will leave this behind
      C5Beyond (x355xx@1)slings and arrows, bearing on our mind
   G5Don't (355xxx@1)make it better
                       D5Shake (xx023x@1)it off, it never mattered, anyway

G5 (355xxx@1)                 D5If (xx023x@1)we don't make it alive
                 B5 (x244xx@1)        E5It's (022xxx@1)a hell of a good day to die.
        D5 (xx023x@1)              C5All (x355xx@1)our light that shines strong
     D5 (xx023x@1)         G5Only (355xxx@1)lasts for so long.
G5 (355xxx@1)                     D5And (xx023x@1)it's ashes to ashes again
               B5 (x244xx@1)      E5Should (022xxx@1)we even try to pretend?
        D5 (xx023x@1)               C5All (x355xx@1)our light that shines strong
     D5 (xx023x@1)         G5Only (355xxx@1)lasts for so long.

    E5The (022xxx@1)banner you're waving is burning in red
     C5It's (x355xx@1)blocking the sunlight, that shines overhead
G5You (355xxx@1)against the world
                              D5Diamonds (xx023x@1)and pearls, voices inside you churn, watch the city burn

     E5Your (022xxx@1)own liberation will leave them behind
C5All (x355xx@1)the slings and arrows, bearing on your mind
G5Don't (355xxx@1)make it better
                         D5Break (xx023x@1)it 'cause it never mattered anyway

G5 (355xxx@1)                 D5If (xx023x@1)we don't make it alive
                 B5 (x244xx@1)        E5It's (022xxx@1)a hell of a good day to die.
        D5 (xx023x@1)              C5All (x355xx@1)our light that shines strong
     D5 (xx023x@1)         G5Only (355xxx@1)lasts for so long.
G5 (355xxx@1)                     D5And (xx023x@1)it's ashes to ashes again
               B5 (x244xx@1)      E5Should (022xxx@1)we even try to pretend?
        D5 (xx023x@1)               C5All (x355xx@1)our light that shines strong
     D5 (xx023x@1)         E5Only (022xxx@1)lasts for so long.
