Dbm                     E
Thought cycle gusty a mind filled with hot air. 
       A                             E          Abm
Must I care for nothing more than myself? Do I dare 
          Dbm                                       E
admit the fraught thoughts cavorting? Resorting in inner-directed mourning
        A                                E              Abm
for the part of me that was selfless but left without a warning. 
     Dbm                                      E
Well that’s what I said, but maybe it’s the fact that I detest 
     A                                   E              Abm
this obsession with myself that leaves a mess inside my head. 
            Dbm                         E
Oh xxxx I’m doing it again, repelling any potential friend, 
          A                    E                 Abm
revealing my innate ability to never fully comprehend 
Dbm                                      E
anything bigger than myself, but in the end I still pretend.
       A                                            E          Abm
Condescending anyone polite enough to choose to misspend their time 
Dbm                           E
watching me as I achieve my secret social mission. 
    A                           E               Abm
To drain people with my boring stories and opinions. 
   Dbm                            E
To see the bigger picture takes intelligence and wisdom,
      A                                   E            Abm
but I won’t see nothing more with just myself in my vision.

endlessly incessantly declining any pleasantries.

this is an elegy for concepts I conceived in deep sleep, 
     A                                    E               Abm
as I helplessly watch them fade whilst I awake, I try and keep them alive.

Incomparable with life but eventually they die

and the brain I used to cultivate reveals my lovers were a lie. |
