Graffiti decorations

Under a sky of dust

A constant wave of tension

On top of broken trust

The lessons that you taught me

I learn were never true

Now I find myself in question

(They point the finger at me again)
Em
Guilty by association
G
(You point the finger at me again)
(Chorus) play the same as the intro
I wanna run away
Never say goodbye
I wanna know the truth
Instead of wondering why
I wanna know the answers
No more lies
I wanna shut the door
And open up my mind
Bm
Paper bags and angry voices
G
Under a sky of dust

Another wave of tension
G
Has more than filled me up

All my talk of taking action

These words were never true

Now I find myself in question

(You point the finger at me again)

I'm gonna run away and never say goodbye

(gonna run away/mind gonna run away gonna run away/mind mind gonna run away mind
gonna run away/mind gonna run away gonna run away gonna run away/mind)
{Chorus} x2
