Structure + Lyrics 

Intro 

Pre-Verse 

Verse 
you told me 
don't you look at the sun 
it burns your eyes out 
i disobeyed and seen the man 
who's going nowhere 

Pre-Chorus 

Chorus 
convince me this 
you don't got to worry 
you're on your feet 
please help me down 
i brainstormed and caught up with my friend 
he's doing fine now 

Verse 
its been uplifting 
knowing you are 
how sad, its so sad 

Pre-Chorus 

Chorus 
i beg him this 
may he mind not worry 
to break this chord of paranoia 

Bridge 
and there's no anecdote for a petty love 
i think you found the lighter side 
of our friendly hope 
i don't mean to poke 
we can face obvious nonsense 

Interlude 

Quiet Interlude 

Outro 

Intro riff 

End on Eb and G octave
