F#5 
each night I close my eyes 
    B5
and wonder what will come of me 
F#5           B5
in days to follow
F#5                  B5
I lay awake and after countless hours, 
                      F#5
I just can`t think straight 
                 B5
turn in, fade, pass out
              F#5            B5
yet, in this simple way, we offer
      F#5                B5
to destroy all we can`t figure out
       F#5               B5
in our simple lives, unconscious
    F#5                    B5
we employ our skills from underground
   D5           C5   C#5
to seek what we`ve never seen
    D5   C#5 C#5
to explore, deep 
F#5    B5
inside

the mornings greet me with grey days and tear-stained windowsills and pillowcases
I get dressed and go to work
bloody noses, red like roses pose as sanctuary
when I just need a minute to myself
and in this simple way, we offer
to destroy all we can`t figure out
in our simple lives, unconscious
we employ our skills from underground
to seek what we`ve never seen
to find, where we never knew
to explore deep, inside

kill me, won`t you kill me
kill me
 let me sleep again
 kill me
 don`t relate your memories
 kill me
 kill me won`t you
 to see
 what we`ve never seen to find
 where we never knew to go
 where we never dared to explore
 deep...
