Key:
C5 Gm7 Abmaj7 Maybe this schism is just a symptom
Bb/Eb Of late capitalism
F A Savior's died and risen
Abmaj7 Of worlds that wouldn't listen
G7sus G To their own collapse
C5 Gm7 Even if this story
Abmaj7 Is overwrought and gory
Bb/Eb F It's not a fable, it's not an allegory
Abmaj7 G7sus No cautionary tale, no memento mori
G Or a vague perhaps [Chorus]
C5 Gm7 Maybe you've been slaughtered
Abmaj7 Maybe you've been kissed
Bb/Eb Either way means nothing
F I simply don't exist
Abmaj7 Look at what's been done here
G7sus Judge it how you wish
G I am all alone here
C5 I am a solipsist
Continues after the ad
Gm7 This is what we've come to
Abmaj7 What we have become
Bb/Eb I am not a person
F Known to anyone
Abmaj7 All the doors are tried and tested
G7sus G Know that this is not an exit [Verse 2]
C5 Gm7 Abmaj7 Am I just a version of the end of days?
Bb/Eb F Am I just an effect of a modern phase?
Abmaj7 G7sus Am I just the end point of the grand parade?
G Should we be afraid? [Chorus]
C5 Gm7 Maybe you've been slaughtered
Abmaj7 Maybe you've been kissed
Bb/Eb Either way means nothing
F I simply don't exist
Abmaj7 Look at what's been done here
G7sus Judge it how you wish
G I am all alone here
C5 I am a solipsist
Gm7 This is what we've come to
Abmaj7 What we have become
Bb/Eb I am not a person
F Known to anyone
Abmaj7 All the doors are tried and tested
G7sus G Know that this is not an exit [Other]
C5 Gm7 Abmaj7 None of this exists for me
Bb/Eb This is all a fantasy
F There is no future here
Abmaj7 There is no history
G7sus None of this is real
G C It's not reality
Gm7 Abmaj7 None of this exists for me
Bb/Eb There is no consistency
F There is only entropy
Abmaj7 And even though I've tried and tested
G7sus G I know that this is not an exit
