Verse 1
D 
I'm awake in the afternoon,
Em 
I fell asleep in the living room
G 
It's one of those moments
Bm 
G 
when everything is so clear
D 
Before the truth goes back into hiding
Em 
I wanna decide cause it's worth deciding
G 
To work on finding something
Bm 
G 
more than this fear
C 
D 
Bm 
G 
It takes so much out of me to pretend
D 
But tell me now,
Bm 
G 
tell me how to make amends
D 
A 
Maybe you need to see the daylight
F#m 
Bm 
Leave behind the half -life
G 
Don't you see I'm breaking down,
D 
oh lately
A 
Some hair don't feel right,
F#m 
Bm 
this is just how I'm alive
G 
Is there really no escape,
D 
Em 
no escape from time,
G 
A 
Bm 
A 
G 
of any kind
D 
I keep trying to understand
Em 
this thing and that thing, my fellow man
G 
Bm 
I guess I'll let you know
G 
when I figure it out
D 
And I  don't mind a few mysteries,
Em 
they can stay that way
It's fine by me,
G 
Bm 
G 
but you are another mystery I am missing
C 
D

It takes too much out of me to pretend

Maybe I need to see the daylight
F#m

Leave behind the half -life
G 
Don't you see I'm breaking down?

Oh, lately, some hair don't feel right
