Db
I cried and I sang
F Bbm Gb
for the loss of my only father (my father, my father)
Db F
I categorized my emotions into lines
Bbm Gb
on a black piece of paper
Db
I prayed to a god
F Bbm Gb
who's never answered (no answer, no answer)
Db F Bbm Gb Db F Bbm Gb
to dry the tears of my mother (my mother, my mother)
[Verse]
Db
Misplacin' the failed
F
acceptance of myself into others
Bbm
I'm feelin' the guilt
Gb
of being selfish too selfish
Db
too tired for that compromise
F
so I'll drown my confusion
Bbm
in a bottle of poison
Gb Ab
for my thoughts to just stop
Db F Bbm Gb
and I'll pick it up in the morning
[Chorus]
Ab
I'll spend my time waitin'
F
for that train to arrive
Bbm
I'm tunin' that note
Gb
just to pass the time
Ebm
this shit luck won't last too long
Ab
but it's up to me
Db F Bbm Gb
to kick it up a notch
[Verse]
Db
I'm scatchin' deep
F Bbm
in this monotone beat
Gb
this paper thin pallette
Db
laid so meticulously
F
to see a stretch of red
Bbm Gb
down my grey tainted neck
Db
and I keep searchin' for that answer
F Bbm Gb
of why I keep breathing
Db
when those consequences
F
make my core rot so seamlessly
Bbm Gb
with that unfailing tide
Db
of drownin' days blacked out nights
Bbm
suffocating lungs
Gb Db F Bbm Gb
and ill fated strides
[Chorus]
Ab
I'll spend my time waitin'
F
for that train to arrive
Bbm
I'm tunin' that note
Gb
just to pass the time
Ebm
this shit luck won't last too long
Ab
but it's up to me
Db F Bbm Gb
to kick it up a notch
[Verse]
Db
So baby wipe those virgin tears
F
from your cheek
Bbm
your innocence spent
Gb
on a liar and a fake
Db
but deep inside
F
that broken tattered corpse you know
Bbm Gb
this is not who you were meant to be
[Chorus]
Ab
so spend your time waitin'
F
for that train to arrive
Bbm
and tune that note
Gb
till it sounds just right
Ebm
this shit luck won't last too long
Ab
but it's up to you
Ab
to make it stop.
