EmGot (022000@1)glue in your feathers
Dmaj/A
What brought you to this?
CA (x32010@1)flightless bird surrounded by
ARed (x02220@1)handed kids

EmSo (022000@1)practice your boredom
Dmaj/A
Look a thousand times removed
CCause (x32010@1)only a freak would sing

CIf (x32010@1)you want some

But naming the feeling
It just, it kills the charade
And if flowers should bloom
Upon your wallpaper face
It will follow you everywhere you go
Because everybody's in on the joke

Desire only burns 
And envy's always green
A mind can only race
And a heart, it can only beat
There's these towering neon signs
We must uphold
To keep out the blackness
And run with the blue
Now only a fool would sing
As if he's telling the truth
Could you swallow down
That lump in your throat?
Because everybody's in on the joke

Are you missing a stranger 
That you might have loved?
Do you feel that there's something
You don't feel enough?
There's a perfectly good poison....

Are you missing a stranger 
That you might have loved?
Do you feel that there's something
You don't feel enough?
There's a perfectly good poison....
