[Intro: ]F#5 B5 E5 C#5
F#m Bm F#m
Indeed I have sucked it up to heights
Bm F#m
Unknown to those outside
Bm F#m
My body has contained and suppressed
Bm
And swallowed and abetted
F#m Bm F#m
Oh I am a stranger to myself
Bm F#m
Beneath altruism dwells
Bm
A force uncontended
F#m
A voice that is tempered
Bm
To boiled and unhindered
(F#5 B5 E5 C#5)
Who am I kidding?
I am not some Mother Theresa
If I don't say something soon
I will break from the weight of the high road I take
No
(F#m Bm)
Indeed I need my chance to fail
some room to unravel
I need a chance to blame for two minutes
unbridled, unbrazened
so I need imaginings of maiming
fantasies of outright screaming
I need a chance to thrash for minutes
uncontained, unforgiving
(F#5 B5 E5 C#5)
Who am I kidding?
I am not some Mother Theresa
If I don't do something soon
I will die from restraint
As a sick subjugate
No
(D5 C#5)
I will move beyond, I'm certain of tha
the sooner I go the quicker I'll be back
I would not threaten or cause you any harm
Have to get this out or my light will go out
