Intro:
E5             B5
sitting around, no work today
C5                 E5
try pacing to keep awake
E5            B5
laying around, no school today
C5                                             E5
just drink until the clock has circled all the way

Pre Verse:
E5
it is late afternoon
       G5
as you walk through the rooms
     D5
of a house that is quiet
           F#5
except for unanswered telephones
E5
you stand near the sink
    G5
while you're mixing a drink
    D5
you think you don't want to pass out
           F#5
where your roommates will find you again

Verse:
B5                                   G5
stumble around the neighborhood with nothing to do
             D5
you're always looking for something
F#5
to sniff, smoke, or swallow
B5                      G5
calling over next door to see what they got
           D5
but you would settle for anything
F#5
that would make your brain slow down or stop

Chorus:
G5                    D5
break this circle of thoughts you chase
           G5                   F#5
before they catch back up with you
         G5                    D5
and your parents noticed your thinning face,
                    B5
all the weight you lost
                      F#5
all the weight you are losing

Verse:
          B5
you said, "i'm done feeling like a skeleton
        G5
no more sleep walking dead"
                D5
you're going to wake from this coma
                F#5
you're going to crawl from this bed you have made
B5
stop counting on that camera
     G5
that hangs round your neck
                 D5
because it won't ever remember
         F#5
what you choose to forget as you
B5
try to find some source of light
G5
try to name one thing you like
D5
used to have such a longer list
F#5
and light you never had to look for it
             B5
but now it's so easy, it's so easy to
G5
it's so easy, it's so easy to
D5
second guess everything you do
      F#5
until all you want is, all you want is

Chorus:
    G5               D5
to finish this half empty glass
          G5              F#5
before the ice all melts away
     G5             D5
this feeling always used to pass
                         B5             F#5
but seems like it's every day and every night now
