E
And now the shades are drawn
E                   G                                      E
This dark infesting shadows cross the hall and now they?re gone 
E
I see this old arcade
E                       G                               E
And rain comes down the gutters to the wood this liquid dawn
E
So my heart races now
E                  G                                  E
These palpitations bust the seams off my laced sequin dress
E
I see you standing there
E                  G                            E
With rosy fingers, damn this life a godless existence

D          G   E                  D
This schizophrenia is taking over me
G                             A
And we don?t need this now do we Oh 

E
It never was like this
E                     G                              E                       
But still I could not be trusted with your love no not once
E
We danced the meringue
E                      G                            E
Those golden footsteps signs of our fate in redundancy
E
But now the past is gone
E                     G                             E
And now I?m messed up beyond any thought or small belief
E
This fate is choking me
E              G                               E
Like icy water from the depths of that barrier reef

D          G   E                  D
This schizophrenia is taking over me
G                             A
And we don?t need this now do we
D          G   E                  D
This schizophrenia is taking over me
G                             A
And we don?t need this now do we

D           G                E          A
Talk to the light, you?ll be colored so bright
D          G                 E        A
Behind the wheel, they stalk over the drill sirens
D         G            E         A
Open your mouth behind shades of?
D         G        E            A
Waking in fire and dreaming in?
D           G            E                   A
Holding the night behind straight corn and papyrus 
D          G         E               A
Holding by luscious? Stares that you gave us
D           G               E            A
Waiting for strength behind locks in the fire
D            G             E            A 
Wait for the love that you said would inspire
D            G              E                   A
Wait for the times that you Said you would cherish
D             G            E                    D  
Wait for the love that you Said that would make it!


D          G   E                  D
This schizophrenia is taking over me
G                             A
And we don?t need this now do we
D          G   E                  D
This schizophrenia is taking over me
G                             A
And we don?t need this now do we
