            A                G
This is the end, this is the end
          A                            G
You will wait to find that I am still here
                 A                         G
And you've been waiting for the light to shine
Bm        G        A
Wake up, wake up, wake up
Bm              D                  Bm
I'll be the answer to the question I can't answer
                                D
It's a question you can't spit it out
                    Em
Can we find, we find, we find a way out
A way out

Bm  D          E
It's easier to understand
Bm  D                E
We die, we're buried underground
Bm   D              E
But I have stayed awake since then
Bm    D               E
I'm trying to find a new best friend
Bm  D         E
You instigate, come after chasing
Bm    D          E
Oh, what the hell should I say then?
Bm D
I missed you
E                               Bm           D
Let's spend the future talking about the past
         E
How you said goodbye
      Bm               G A  E
How I fucked your mind up

We really are something else
I'd say you were sent here just to keep me in check
My pulse is quick
My neck is stretched
Cruel lover says I need to just get over it
Get over him
Get over myself

They say there's something in your sky
We should pay attention
I don't care to realize
I'm too busy moping
They say there's something in our seas
We should all be careful
I'm not swimming anyway
I'm too busy moping
They say there's something in my house
That I should just get out, get out
I don't want to be escaping
No, I'm too busy moping around
I'm too busy moping around
I'm too busy moping around
I'm too busy moping around
I'm too busy moping around

Take a run home, I don’t like where you’re going
Run home, I don’t like what you're saying
Run home, I don’t laugh where you’re going
Run home, I don’t like what you're saying
Take a run home, I don’t like where you’re going
Run home, I don’t like what you're saying
Run home, I don’t like where you’re going
Run home, I don’t like what you're saying
