[G] [B]
[C] [B]
[C] [B]
[C] Nothing comes [B] easier than madness in the world today
Man's paranoia is a mode, not a malady
I'd like to watch a thousand cable channels, but there's nothing at my house
Speed [C] connections monitored daily by the [D] Pentagon
[B] These things are seldom what they seem
[C]
I'm not inclined to [D]
enjoy [F] my dreams
[B] Won't go away, [E] no peace, no friends
[G] We trace the mortal [D] way, to state the obvious
[B] This world [C] is [D]
perilous for [E] us, no sense, and no guide
[G] Ain't it beautiful to be alive?
[D] I won't resign before the sun lands
[B] So I'll [C] construct [D] this sound [E] defense
[C]
[B] [G]
[B]
[C] [B]
[C]
Beyond the plague, and culture is a predator
I'm running out of time, where conditions are positional
Shadows of a doubt, cast reluctance and depravity
There's gotta be a way to overcome this grim reality
[B] Is there an option left for me?
[C] [D]
[C] I'm not [C] immune to
[A] [F] despondency
[B] There's no way, [E] no peace, no friends
[G] We trace the mortal [D] way, to state the obvious
[B] This world [C] is [D]
perilous for [E] us, no sense, and no guide
[G] Ain't it beautiful to be alive?
[D] I won't resign before the sun [B] lands
So I'll [C] construct [D] this sound defense
[B]
[G]
[C]
[D#] [E] [Bm]
[A] There's a signpost on [G] the corner, and it keeps everybody [D] safe
We were all made in [E] the shade, [G]
[A] [Am] and your mother's in [G] the kitchen
Where she's patching all the cracks in [D] the wall
[F#m] We never had a care in [F] the world
[B] I
[E]
[G]
[D]
[B]
[C] [E] Too much to sacrifice, it's hard to [G] recognize
Try to compromise, I'm purely deadly [D] unbiased
It's combinational, the pressure's so [B] intense
So I'll [C] construct [D] this sound [E] defense
Much greater than the madness in the world [G] today
I must conceal myself, conceal myself and break [D] away
I think of mission in the numbers that are black [B] and white
So I'll [C] construct this sound [E] defense
[C] [B]
