A
Count back anesthetize
Colours burnt into my eyes
D
Life for you is shades of grey
Help me, help me find my way
F#m
Lost, lost, never found
Hide your secrets, settle down
D
I am young and I am naïve
Tell me something I will believe
A
Take me, take me far away
From this city’s soul decay
D
Hid away ’til I was eighteen
Only saw colors on a TV screen
F#m
Skinny jeans and sunglasses
A fashion statement for the masses
D
What you're doing makes me sick
Overhyped and generic
A
Shine, shine, like the sun
Spread your warmth through everyone
D
I asked you why people die
You said we all have a design
F#m
Slide, slide into the sea
Landslide coming down on me
D
I said I was into you
You said you were into me

[Chorus]
A
You never answer on the phone
D
With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
F#m
I look for you by the underpass
D
Looks like this love wasn’t meant to last
A
You said you reap just what you sow
D
So tell me, where does your garden grow?
F#m
You said in time the pain would pass
D
Looks like the end is here at last
A
Burn, burn, like a star
Burn a hole in every heart
D
Strung out on a trail of blood
Who knew the stars were not enough
F#m
Smile, smile, if you can
If you can’t I’ll understand
D
See these stiches in my eyes
Smash computers, kill rockstars
A
Purge the past and waste my mind
Leave no scent or trace behind
D
One day when you bury me
When I wake up what will I see?
F#m
Down, down, underground
Dig for fire, dig for sound
D
What is on the radio
Cause I would like to say hello
A
Crawl, crawl, through the dirt
Jesus, show us what you're worth
D
Can’t you just send us a sign
Tell us all that we’re doing fine
F#m
Nights for sitting in the dark
Days for lying in the park
D
Wake me up from my sick dream
A requiem for this dead scene

[Chorus 2]
A
You never answer on the phone
D
With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone
F#m
I look for you by the underpass
D
Looks like this love wasn’t meant to last
A
You said you reap just what you sow
D
So tell me, where does your garden grow?
F#m
You said in time the pain would pass
D
Looks like the end is here at last
A, D, F#m, D (x2)
A
Count back anesthetize
Colours burnt into my eyes
D
Life for you is shades of grey
Help me, help me find my way
F#m
Mother can’t you help me now
Cause I’ve been drowning in the sound
D
Lying on the motorway
Writing songs and wasting away
