[Verse]
Cm
The one thing it is constant are the hands of time;
GAb
sands passing through a focal point, it moves in a line.
Cm
You can tell me it's subjective (you're correct to a point),
GAb
but it's still a fucking given we're moving towards the void.
Cm
Life's yours? Can you tell me how much you give away,
GAb
are you really that content with constructing your grave.
Cm
If there's really a tomorrow you can push it away,
GAb
but when it's the bottom of the barrel it gets harder to scrape by(e)
[Chorus]
EbBbCm
I don't want to live my life this way,
AbEb
clinging to the nose hairs, walking along the razors edge!
BbCm
We're in way over our heads; Head-over-heels over ideals
AbEb
that keep us heeled under the masters and we're happy to beg!
BbCm
Take the long walks through the valleys in the shadows of death,
Ab
and take the short cuts through the monoliths of hypocrites.
EbBbCm
I feel like shit, I need to sit, my head is constantly spinning; nothing's real!
AbGCm
Take a second to find the courage to put your hand back on the wheel.
AbGCm
Wooohooo on the weel again,
AbGCm
Wooohooo on the weel again,
AbGCmGCm
Wooohooo on the weel again.

Hey!! (Rough stroke, I don't know how to explain just listen to the song.)

[Verse]
Cm
To every friend that was living, but now no longer is,
GAb
I miss you more with passing time like I miss being a kid.
Cm
To every member of my family that has passed I can say
GAb
I'm really sorry I haven't taken time to visit your grave.
Cm
To every single fucking person that is feeling depressed
GAb
I can say understand with what beats in my chest;
Cm
a culmination of numbing apathy, and overwhelming stress.
GAb
You think life is fucking messy? IT GET'S HARD IF YOU C N'T CRY!
[Chorus]
EbBbCm
I don't want to live my life this way,
AbEb
clinging to the nose hairs, walking along the razors edge!
BbCm
We're in way over our heads; Head-over-heels over ideals

that keep us heeled under the masters and we're happy to beg!

and take the short cuts through the monoliths of hypocrites.

[Verse]
Cm
And it's true this life is pointless, we're insignificant dust,
GAb
and it makes us feel inferior so we build things that rust,
Cm
and because the fact that we feel worthless, just to give ourselves worth,
GAb
we strip ourselves of independence and it's making shit worse.
Cm
If this is what we have to look forwards to for the rest of our lives,
GAb
THEN YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY OF US JUST WISH WE CAN DIE!
[Chorus]
EbBbCm
I don't want to live my life this way,

[Verse]
Cm
Why are put here to suffer and die?
GAb
If we're all so impermanent, why even try?
Cm
What's the point? What's the end game? Life's a scam,
GAb
we're just saving up money to pay...
CmGAb
for a casket or urn. I'm exhausted and ready to burn... all my rhyme books.
Cm
I'm snapping my pens if decay always wins,
GAb
guess the light bulb burned out at the end of my tunnel.
[Chorus]
EbBbCm
I don't want to live my life this way,
