 Intro

 A D F#m D x2

Count back, anaesthetize

 Colours burnt into my eyes

Life for you is shades of grey

 Help me, help me find my way

Lost, lost, never found

 Hide your secrets, settle down

I am young and I am naïve

 Tell me something I will believe

Take me, take me far away

 From this city's soul decay

Hid away 'til I was eighteen

 Only saw colors on a TV screen

Skinny jeans and sunglasses

 A fashion statement for the masses

What you're doing makes me sick

 Overhyped and generic

Shine, shine, like the sun

 Spread your warmth through everyone

I asked you why people die

 You said we all have a design

Slide, slide into the sea

 Landslide coming down on me

I said I was into you

 You said you were into me

A

 You never answer on the phone

With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone

I look for you by the underpass

Looks like this love wasn't meant to last

You said you reap just what you sow

So tell me, where does your garden grow?

You said in time the pain would pass

Looks like the end is here at last

 Intro

A  

 Burn, burn, like a star

 Burn a hole in every heart

Strung out on a trail of blood

 Who knew the stars were not enough?

Smile, smile, if you can

 If you can't I'll understand

See these stiches in my eyes

 Smash computers, kill rockstars

Purge the past and waste my mind

 Leave no scent or trace behind

One day when you bury me

 When I wake up what will I see?

Down, down, underground

 Dig for fire, dig for sound

What is on the radio

 Cause I would like to say hello

Crawl, crawl, through the dirt

 Jesus, show me what you're worth

Can't you just send us a sign

 Tell us all that we're doing fine

Nights for sitting in the dark

 Days for lying in the park

Wake me up from my sick dream

 A requiem for this dead scene

A

 You never answer on the phone

With your nicotine lips and your heart of stone

I look for you by the underpass

Looks like this love wasn't meant to last

You said you reap just what you sow

So tell me, where does your garden grow?

You said in time the pain would pass

Looks like the end is here at last

 A D F#m D x8

 Woah oh oh ooo ooo

Count back, anaesthetize

 Colours burnt into my eyes

Life for you is shades of grey

 Help me, help me find my way

Mother can't you help me now

 Cause I've been drowning in the sound

Lying on the motorway

 Writing songs and wasting away

 End on D
