Ode To Sleep

[Intro] C  Em
         Em  C

Em
I wake up fine and dandy but then by
 the time I find it handy

To rip my heart apart and start 
planning my crash landing
C
I go up, up, up, up, up to the 
ceiling

Then I feel my soul start leaving, 
like an old man's hair receding
Em
I'm pleading please, oh please on my
 knees repeatedly asking

Why it's got to be like this, is 
this living free
C
I don't want to be the one, be the 
one who has the son's blood on my 
hands

I'll tell the moon, take this weapon
 forged in darkness
                                 Em
Some see a pen, I see a harpoon

 G

G     Bm    Em               Am
I'll stay awake, 'cause the dark's
               D             G  
Not taking prisoners tonight
Bm  Em  Am  D

G
Why am I not scared in the morning
             Bm               Em
I don't hear those voices calling
                         Am
I must have kicked them out
  D
I must have kicked them out
G
I swear I heard demons yelling
             Bm                  Em
Those crazy words they were spelling

                    Am
They told me I was gone
  D                     G
They told me I was gone

G
But I'll tell them

G    C                G
Why won't you let me go?
D              G         C
Do I threaten all your plans?
    Bm       D
I'm insignificant
                  G   C           
Please tell them you have no plans
     G
 for me
  D            G        C    Bm 
I will set my soul on fire, what
          D
 have I become?
               Em
I'll tell them!

 Em  C

Em
On the eve of a day that's forgotten
 and fake

As the trees they await and clouds 
anticipate

The start of a day when we put on 
our face

A mask that portrays that we don't 
need grace

C
On the eve of a day that is bigger 
than us

But we open our eyes 'cause we're 
told that we must

And the trees wave their arms and 
the clouds try to plead

Desperately yelling there's 
something we need
Em
I'm not free, I asked forgiveness 
three times

Same amount that I denied, I 
three-time mvp'ed this crime
C
I'm afraid to tell you who I adore, 
won't tell you what I'm singing 
towards
Metaphorically I'm a whore, and 
                           Em
that's denial number four

 G
