F#         G#
I shed my skin
          F#                   G#
When the party was about to begin
    D#m
I'm light years away but
     C#             F#
I'm walking back tonight

Of all nights
When I should be feeling just right
Don't want to be in public
My head is full of chopstick
I don't like it

Chorus:
C#               G#
Something on my mind
  B                         C#
Breaking open doors I had sealed up before
                 G#
Something on my mind
          B                     C#
Makes me run when I thought I'd run too far

Somebody shaking my tree
Maybe that somebody is me
I'm standing in the light but
I'm making a break for the shadows

On the cinema wall
They should be mine but I'm not that tall
Now I'm saying this in private
If I had a car I'd drive it
Insane

Chorus

I'm looking for cracks in the pavement
