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

          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
