[Chorus]C G These are massive, giant,F troubling, consuming thoughtsG saturating my thinkingC But I think she’ll just think it’sG F C annoying so I won’t bring it up She says “it just doesn’t make anyG F sense, you should think about your artG And your friends and about ourC G F C relationship.” [Verse 3]C G My girlfriend doesn’t question theF C psychology of Charles Manson What does it say about the humanG condition?F Why are people so receptive toG listen?C And why is confidence alone such aG magnet?F G It’s unfair the way some people have itC And they seem to do the things thatG they want toF We all just get away with all thatG we can doC Because it’s only sexiness that hasG any valueF And all society just falls by theG waysideC Into the hierarchy of cult andG apparentF And it’s genetics to be masters ofG victimC And does hedonism go withG corruption?F Why are we drawn to dramas ofG domination?
