    Verse 1
    It's lonely 
    at 
    the 
    top 

    of 
    the 
    upside 
    mountain 

    Watch 
    the 
    sunrise 
    from a 

    windowless 
    room 

    If the 
    Para
    medics stall 

    the soul 
    goes 
    on 

    Without 
    them 
    in 
    a 
    wicker 
    basket 

    tied 
    to 
    a 
    bal
    loon 

    Verse 2

    There are 
    no 
    boundaries 
    to love 

    The heart 
    can't 
    comprehend 

    the panorama 

    I took 
    it on 
    the chin 
    from 

    some 
    second 
    hand 
    feeling 

    Sorrow 
    handed 
    down 
    to 
    me 

    it felt 
    brand 
    new 

    Verse 3

    Tiny 
    viol
    ins 
    or some 

    summer 
    insects 
    listening 

    An
    other 
    season 
    leaving 
    us 

    too 
    soon 

    Freedom's 
    the 
    opposite 
    of 
    love 

    You'll 
    never 
    keep 
    it 
    through 
    the 
    para

    noia 

    Interlude 1



    Standing 
    on 
    the edge 
    Verse 4
    of 

    a mil
    lion 
    landscapes 

    Empty
    ing 
    and 
    the 
    water 
    from 

    the gla
    cier 
    fills 
    my 
    shoes 

    Laying 
    in 
    your bed 
    my dreams 

    are 
    sex 
    and 
    violence 

    I 
    chase 
    the rapist 
    chasing 

    after 
    you 

    Verse 5

    There is 
    no 
    dignity 
    in 
    love 

    Trade 
    every 
    scrap 
    to 
    get 

    some 
    ab
    so
    lution 

    'Til 
    then I'm 
    walking 
    out 
    the door 

    'Til 
    then I'm 
    running 
    through 
    the 
    airport 

    'Til 
    then i'm 
    waiting 
    around 
    for 
    no 
    one

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
