_ _ _ _ [Em] I see the sword of Damocles [C] is right above your [G] head
They're _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] trying a new treatment [C] to get you out of bed
[G] _ But _ _ _ _ [Em] radiation kills both bad and good, [C] it cannot differentiate
_ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] So to kill you they must kill you, [C] the sword of Damocles hangs [G] above your head
_ Now _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _

_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] I've seen lots of people die [C] from car crashes or drugs
_ [G] Last _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] night on 33rd street I [C] saw a kid get hit by a bus
[G] But _ _ _ _ _ [Em] this drawn out torture over which part of [C] you lives is very hard to take
[G] _ To _ _ _ _ _ [Em] kill you they must kill you, [C] the sword of Damocles above [G] your head _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ That [Em] mix of morphine and dexedrine [C] we use it on the street
_ [G] _ It _ _ _ _ [Em] kills the pain and keeps you up, [C] you're very soul to keep
[G] _ But _ _ _ _ [Em] just guessing game has its own [C] rules, the good don't always [G] win _
And _ _ _ _ [Em] life makes right, the [C] sword of Damocles is hanging [G] above your head _
It _ _ [Em] seems everything's done that [G] must be [C] done from over here though things don't seem [G] fair _
_ _ _ But [Em] there are things that we can't know, [C] maybe there's something over there
[G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] Some other world that we don't know about, [C] I know you hate that mystic [G] shit _
It's _ _ _ [Em] just another way of seeing, [C] the sword of Damocles [G] above your head _
_ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ _
