Gm                            Dm 
If I could take my eyes away, might not get so dark out
Gm                         Dm 
If I could keep my hands away, might not feel so dry out and
Am                                     Am6
When I would feel I'd know that it was real


Gm                                    Dm 
I'd like to stay with natural things, organic as my skin that peels
Am                          F 
And not so often enter into out of space that I can never-
C      F            C     F 
Touch, back-lit and bite. Fields in a 
C    F          C   F
mine to turn it off and to make sure


Am 
I keep it real with myself and never let obsessions with connections to an outside source be
Gm 
Crippling my ability to
F           Eb     F
Breathe and take a step out from the usual places
                  Am
Just to make sure I keep it real with my own and never let a tendency to tread in 
water with no target
Gm
Cripple my ability to-

F      Eb       F        Eb
Why am I seeing screens? Why am I
F       Eb          F    Eb
Seeing. Screens why am I seeing?
F        Eb           F        Eb
No one's between what I should and why
F    Eb     D      Eb
am I seeing how to do it?


Am                    Gm 
I feel frail whenever I'm lost in so many
Am                               Gm 
Screens that I am seeing screens appear behind my eyes
Am                        Gm
But I feel frail whenever I'm lost in so many
Am                               Gm
Screens that I am seeing screens appear behind my eyes
Am                        Gm
But I feel frail whenever I'm lost in so many
Am                               Gm
Screens that I am seeing screens appear behind my eyes
