Insomnia - Electric president
F# C#
There's a life full, dangling from string
F# C#
It's slowly swaying over my head now
F# C# Ab
As I jot down the words that will never be solved
Bbm Ab
And wait for my headache to numb
And the wind sounds as if the world's sighing
And the moon's just a torn fingernail
As the TV flickers in homes by the wall
And I wait for my eyesight to fade
F# C# Bbm Ab
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
F# C# Bbm Ab
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
Not pride, I choke on ambition
And the old folks circle their graves
And the young ones are busy destroying their heirs
And the heirs are still just wasting away
I sit and watch this screen for a message
Some kind of sign that says we're ok
But the screen stays blank till I turn the thing on
And I wait for my conscience to break
Instrumental
So...
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
I hope you are learning to listen
And I hope you are learning to stay
And I hope you find what you are missing
And I hope they're making your way
I'm a headcase if I don't keep moving
And my head hurts if I don't sit still
It's an itch that I never stop scratching
It's a hole that I'll never quite fill
So...
Outro: F# C# Bbm Ab
