Verse:
Lonely boy, where do we go
I'm stuck believing in the other side
stuck on my own 
run fast, you're dreaming

no place to hide
safety in things i'm dumb for thinking
'cuz a piece of plastic
                        (just keep playing Edon't (022100@1)go to B/E)
is nothing more than a piece of plastic

empty streets under my feet
how did we get so far?
from the general beat
across that great
held fast together in the dying day
oh you are swimming inside the magic hour
       F#moh (244222@1)and when you wet your skin
G# (xx1114@1)                            Eyou (022100@1)can suck up all you need to know
A (x02220@1)                             E (022100@1)         Ayou (x02220@1)can suck up all you need to know, oh oh

Verse:
picture me, how will you picture me when i am dead?
all fast and free, building a fantasy with blocks in my head
a legacy, do these things disapate in the years unread?
           F#m (244222@1)                 G#i've (xx1114@1)got a pain just like a knife, and the time has left me

Chorus:

        Ai'm (x02220@1)not afraid of life, i'm afraid of death
Ebuild (022100@1)my love in the things i say
             Ayou've (x02220@1)gotta lift your face to the breaking day

oh i'm just trying to do my best
i'm not afraid of life, i'm afraid of death
build my love in the things i say
you've gotta lift your face to the breaking day
