Am
I dragged my feet across the seat
Jumped out the passenger side
The only thing worth looking for
Is what you find inside
     C	         Bm	Am
But that had not yet appeared

Lost, invisible here
Tel Aviv and Agadir
Taroudant and Olomouc
Before I learned to see
The vanishing point appear

Chorus:
G             D	 C  Bm	Em
I looked for you everywhere.
I looked for you everywhere.

There is a calm I haven't come to yet
I spent half my life figuring what comes next
I telescoped in, I finally win
I finally win the prize
That now my eyes see a comic's
Perfect timing squeezed
I'm head-first fighting everything
The crushing force of memory
Erasing all I've been
The vanishing point appears

Chorus:
I looked for you and everywhere
I looked for you and everywhere
Tell me why you're here
I came to disappear

Look at this face
Can you believe it?
Am I living in a beautiful vacuum?
Because I can't see it
The vanishing point appears

Chorus:
I looked for you and everywhere
I looked for you and everywhere
Tell me why you're here
I came to disappear
Tell me why you're here
I came to disappear
I came to disappear
