Loneliness

Dm, C, Em, Am

[Verse 1]
Dm
A flicker of a light in an empty 
home
C
Bickering at night and you end up 
cold
Em
I wanna let the right brain retain 
control
Am
The rhyme inspires most when it's 5 
minutes old
Dm
There's a feeling that I get when 
it's sad and it's grey
C
Reminds me of times way back in the 
day
Em
They wouldn't call me back, they 
didn't wanna play
I ask my stepmother if it ever goes 
away
Dm
So I'm sending you a message with 
text
C
That doesn't really say it's an SOS
Em
Yes so I guess that I press those 
numbers
Am
To summon for a presto, grow less 
number
Dm
Looking forwards I spring into 
summer
C
And wonder if you would lay around 
like lumber
Em
And supports me like a funder
Paying attention to my pain and 
tension
Dm
We all have forces pulling us under
C
But somewhere beneath this world 
torn asunder
Em
We smell the storm before the 
thunder
Am
And bring angles down to earth like 
sunder

Dm, C

Em                                
And when it bursts, the loneliness
            Am
 hurts like hunger

[Chorus]
              Dm                
Why don't you tell 'em about the 
             C
loneliness?
              Em                
Why don't you tell 'em about the 
             Am
loneliness?
              Dm                
Why don't you tell 'em about the 
             C
loneliness?
              Em                
Why don't you tell 'em about the 
             Am
loneliness?


[Verse 2]
Dm
Where did my joy go?
C
I'm chewin' at its vapors
Em
Hiding from the light
                     Am
With this basement as my base
Dm
The opposite of a smiling face
C
I pile on disgraces
                           Em
Say amazing grace
                                Am
To chase down whatever this taste is
Dm
I'm a tweeter with a blown cone
C
Wonder where the bass is
Em
Drawn to you on a path of penciled 
promises
Am
Found my feet inside erasers
Dm                      C
Praises to Rafael and St. Rita
Em
Try to breathe and gasp
Am
Try to seize and grasp, and breathe 
my last
Dm                                
Don't even ask if you can counsel 
                        C
me
           Em
I'm a lone wolf so I wear wolf wear 
wool
Am
Like lycanthropy
                Dm
Cut connections with irreverence
      C
I slither in and sever us
      Em
I wanna be the boy who lived
          Am
But never have no trust to give
Dm
I must admit through busted lips
          C
I've sunken ships and rusted bridges
Em
Cut slow to the quick
        Am
And lost myself to split decisions
          Dm
Multiply by my divisions
C
Round down for the placement
Dm
Who's he? Just me
Am
Alone in that basement

[Chorus]
              Dm                
Why don't you tell 'em about the 
             C
loneliness?
              Em                
Why don't you tell 'em about the 
             Am
loneliness?
