Verse 1: Mike Shinoda:
          Abm
There's a place so dark
    E
you can't see the end
      B
Skies xxxx back And shock
           Gb
that which can't defend
         Abm
The rain then sends
        E
dripping acidic questions
B
Forcefully the power
      Gb
of suggestion Then with the
Abm
eyes shut looking through
    E                B
the rust and rot and dust
                Gb
A small spot of light
                     Abm
floods the floor And pours
                E
over the rusted world of
                B
pretend And the eyes ease
              Gb
open and it's dark again

Verse 2:
Mike Shinoda
            Abm
Moving all around screaming
       E
of the ups and downs
   B
Pollution manifested
      Gb
in perpetual sound
    Abm
The wheels go round
        E
and the sunset creeps
        B
Behind street lamps
      Gb
chain link and concrete
  Abm
A little piece of paper
       E
with a picture drawn
       B
Floats on down the street
        Gb
til the wind is gone
        Abm
And the memory now is like
    E
the picture was then
         B
When the paper is crumpled up
            Gb
it can't be perfect again
