Intro: A5 A5 G5 My reaction, my response A5 I'm a function in need of x G5 Ask me questions and I reply F5 I'm never first but I'm always next A5 And we stare in our eyes F5 Never blinking and going dry A5 Do you care more than I F5 Who will get the last word? A5 And if we trace back the time F5 Who began with the first line? E5 In any case it's not mine A5 Because these days I can only react Chorus: A5 F5 C5 I'll never speak without your lead G5 A5 And I'm your shadow; I react F5 C5 I'll be the gear between your teeth G5 A5 When you're spinning, I react F5 C5 You are the neutron at lightspeed G5 A5 Spring me open, I react F5 C5 But can I find the zero point I need? G5 A5 Can I change it all and then take it back? It's so easy to shrink an inch Or is this room growing even more? And it's so easy to light a match When you've been burned once or twice before And when I swing blind in rage I'm in search of the first page And when I sing from the stage Who will get the last word? You're the one who creates All to which I retaliate But can I ever navigate Another path than to react? Chorus A5 F5 C5 I'll find where aggression hides away G5 A5 Where my own two hands hold sway F5 C5 It's a bright and beautiful new day G5 A5 I will act, I will act F5 Your reaction, your relapse C5 Out of love will grow collapse G5 Something somewhere finally snaps A5 And I will act, I will act Chorus
