'Love, just        don't stare'
A7               A6
   He used to say    to me
Dm9/A           Em/A
Every Sunday morning
A7                A6
The spider in the window
    Dm9/A             Em/A
The angel in the pool

A6/F#       Dm9/A        Em/G
   Not a word, not a word
A9              A6add9
Judas on the ceiling
     Aadd9(b13)     Asus2
The Devil in my bed
         A9              A6add9
I guess Easter's never coming
Aadd9(b13)                      Asus2   A6   Dm9/A    Em/A  Asus2
   So I'll just wait inside my head
 
 
[Chorus]
Fmaj7#11
Like a scream but sort of silent
                          Aadd9
Living off my nightmares

"Others steal your thoughts
                    G5            G9
They're not confined within your mind."
 
 
[Post-Chorus]
E5    A5 G5  (x2)
 
 
[Verse 3]
Am
Thought disorder, dream control
 
Now they read my mind on the radio
F#m
    But where was the Garden of Eden?
Am
I feel elated, I feel depressed
 
Sex is death, Death is sex
Em
    Says it right here on my Crucifix
 
 
[Chorus]
Fmaj7#11
Like a scream but sort of silent
                          Aadd9
Living off my nightmares

A2
"I don't want to be here, cause of my
 A2(#5)
Suffering, cause of my illness
     A2
Only love is worth having, only
         G7sus4       G7
Love is what matters, loving every
G7sus4        G7
People on equal terms
Am7
"You've got to know who you're
Am7
Dealin' with because, like a stranger
Am7
A-heh, just might come in through
Am7
Here with a gun... and then, what
Am7
Would you do? (Heh.)
Am7
Everything is immaterial
Am7
'n' you know that reality is immaterial
Asus2                  A7    A6   Fmaj7#11/A
This is not reality
 
 
[Verse 4]
    A5add9
I'm kneeling on the floor
A9/G
Staring at the wall
          A6add9/F#
Like the spider in the window
  Am9(b13)
I wish that I could speak
          Asus2
Is there fantasy in refuge?
A7
God in politicians?
         A6add9/F#
Should I turn on my religion?
 
These demons in my head tell me to

[Verse 5]
A5                       A7
   I'm lying here in bed
                            F#5
Swear my skin is inside out
                   F5  F5(b5)
Just another Sunday morning
 F5      A5
Seen my diary on the newsstand
             A7
Seems we've lost the truth to quicksand
        F#5
It's a shame no one is praying
            F5          F5(b5)      F5
Cause these voices in my head keep saying
 
 
[Bridge 1]
A5              F5/A
"Love, just don't stare
C5                             D5/A
Reveal the Word when you're supposed to"
    B7/A
Withdrawn and introverted
   E5/A
Infectiously perverted
        F5/A
"Being laughed at and confused
         Gsus4     G5    Gsus2  G5        A5         F(b5)  Fmaj7#11
Keeps us pleasantly amused enough to stay"

[Bridge 2]
A5
Maybe I'm just Cassandra fleeting
A7
Twentieth century Icon bleeding
A6
Willing to risk Salvation
Am7
To escape from isolation
A5
I'm witness to redemption
A7
Heard you speak but never listened
A6
Can you rid me of my secrets?
Am7
Deliver us from Darkness?
 
 
[Chorus]

Fmaj7#11
Voices discussing me
D/A
Don't expect your own Messiah
      G5             Gsus2       G5
This neverworld which you desire

Is only in your mind
