[Verse 1]
 
Emadd11                   Em
I wake up fine and dandy, but then by the time I find it handy
   Emadd11                      Em
To rip my heart apart and start planning my crash landing
 C6              C
I go up, up, up, up, up to the ceiling
     C6                           C
Then I feel my soul start leaving like an old man's hair receding
Emadd11                          Em
I'm pleading, "Please, oh please!" on my knees repeatedly asking
Emadd11                       Em
Why it's got to be like this, is this living free?
C6                                  C
I don't wanna be the one, be the one who has the
Sun's blood on my hands, I'll tell the moon
C6                         C
Take this weapon forged in darkness
Some see a pen, I see a harpoon

[Pre-Chorus]
G     D/F#    Em            C                D
I'll stay awake 'cause the dark's not taking prisoners tonight
 
G G G D/F# Em Em C D
 
G
Why am I not scared in the morning?
G                  D/F#   Em
I don't hear those voices calling
                        C       C        D
I must have kicked them out, I must have kicked them out
G
I swear I heard demons yelling
G                D/F#        Em
Those crazy words they were spelling
                    C     C        D           G
They told me I was gone, they told me I was gone
 
[Chorus]
                    G    C               G/B
But I'll tell 'em, "Why won't you let me go?
D             G        C          G/B         D
Do I threaten all your plans? I'm insignificant"
                 G   C                 G/B
Please tell 'em, you have no plans for me
D             G      C      G/B         D
I will set my soul on fire, what have I become?
N.C
I'll tell 'em

[Verse 2]
Em
On the eve of a day that's forgotten and fake
As the trees, they await, and clouds anticipate
C
The start of a day when we put on our face
A mask that portrays that we don't need grace
Em
On the eve of a day that is bigger than us
But we open our eyes 'cause we're told that we must
C
And the trees wave their arms and the clouds try to plead
Desperately yelling, "There's something we need!"
Emadd11
I'm not free, I asked forgiveness three times
C6                        C
Same amount that I denied, I three-time MVP'd this crime
Emadd11
I'm afraid to tell you who I adore, won't tell you who I'm singing
towards
C6                    C
Metaphorically, I'm a whore, and that's denial number four

G
Why am I not scared in the morning?
G                  D/F#   Em
I don't hear those voices calling
                        C       C        D
I must have kicked them out, I must have kicked them out
G
I swear I heard demons yelling
G                D/F#        Em
Those crazy words they were spelling
                    C     C        D           G
They told me I was gone, they told me I was gone
 
[Chorus]

Do I threaten all your plans? I'm insignificant"

Please tell 'em, you have no plans for me

I will set my soul on fire, what have I become?

What have I become? I'll tell 'em,

 I'll tell 'em

you have no plans for me
D             G       C     G/B         D                 G
I will set my soul on fire, what have I become? I'm sorry
