[F#] [E] [F#]
[E] [F#] [E] [F#]
I love you, I hate you, I'm on [A] the fence [F#] at all the [E] pins
[F#] Whether [E] I'm up or [F#] down, [E] I'm on the men's fence, ending [F#] all reality
I like you, despise you, [E] admire [F#] you
What [E] are we [F#] gonna [E] do when [F#] [E] everything all [F#] falls through?
I must confess I've made a mess of what should be a small success
[E] But I [F#] don't [E] rest, at least [F#] I've tried my very best, I guess
This, that, the other, why even [E] bother?
[F#] It won't be with me on my deathbed, but I'll still be in your head
Put me [E] on a [A] pedestal and I'll only
[B] [F#] [E]
[A] [B] [F#] Tell me all [E] these steps [A] and all I promise to [B] explore [F#] you
[E]
[A] Give [B] [F#] me all your [E] money [A] and I'll make some [B] origami, [F#] honey
[E] I [A] [B] [F#] [E] think you're a [A] joke, but I don't [B] find you [F#] very
[E] [A] funny
[B] [F#] [F#]
[F#] My [E] [F#]
[E] [F#]
internal monologue is saturated analog
[E] And [F#] it's cracked and drifting
[E] I've become a pass to [F#] the idea
It's all a shifting dream, bittersweet philosophy
[E] I've got no [F#] idea how I [E] even got [F#] here
I'm resentful, I'm having an existential time crisis
What would a daylight saving point fix this mess?
Underworked and over-sexed, I must express my [C#m] dissenters
The rats are back [B] inside my head, [F#] what would writers say?
Put me [E] on a [A] pedestal and I'll only [B] Disappoint [F#] you
[E]
Tell [A] [B] [F#] me all [E] these steps [A] and all I promise to [B] explore [F#] you

[F#] I [E] [F#] [F#]
[E] [F#] [E] [C] [F#] wanna wash out my head with turpentine [E] [F#] cyanide
I dislike this internal diatribe when I try to [C#] calculate
I hate [F#] seeing you crying in the kitchen
I don't know why it affects me like this
When you're not [B] even mine to consider
[C#] Erroneous, harmonious, [F#] I'm hardly thanked-a-money
[E] Dirty clothes, I [F#] suppose we all [B] act for ourselves
[F#]
