    Verse 1
    We've been 
    stuck 
    out here 
    in the 

    hallway 
    for 
    way 
    way 
    too 
    long 

    I'm at a 
    loss, 
    I'm 
    at a loss 

    I'm losing 
    grip, 
    the 
    fabric's ripped 

    Go 
    back to 
    sleep, 
    let me 
    drive, 

    let 
    me think, 
    let 
    me 
    figure 
    it 
    out 

    How to 
    get 
    us back 
    to 
    the place 
    where 

    we were 
    when we 
    first 
    went out 

    Verse 2
    I'll tell you 
    about it 
    some 
    time, 

    the 
    time 
    we 
    left 

    I'll tell you 
    about it 
    some 
    time, 

    the time 
    we 
    left 

    Verse 3
    Losing 
    parents, 
    losing 
    sense 

    I don't 
    know 
    what 
    we should 
    do 

    Became 
    a 
    father 
    when I was 
    still 
    a son, 

    she 
    brings 
    it 
    out 
    in 
    you 

    See 
    you at 
    the 
    end 
    of the party 

    with 
    your 
    wild 
    white 
    eyes 

    Filling 
    up 
    the teacup 
    with 
    gin 
    in your 

    secret 
    postcard 
    life 

    Verse 4
    I'll tell you 
    about it 
    some 
    time, 

    the 
    time 
    we 
    left 

    I'll 
    tell you 
    about it 
    some 
    time, 

    the 
    time 
    we 
    left 

    I'll tell you 
    about it 
    some 
    time, 

    the 
    time 
    we 
    left 

    I'll 
    tell you 
    about it 
    some 
    time, 

    Interlude 1
    the 
    time 
    we 
    left 


    Verse 5
    We leave 
    our saviors 
    wrapped 
    around 

    the necks 
    of new 
    machines 

    Or at 
    the ends 
    of 
    threads 
    that 
    hold 

    their 
    bodies 
    to the 
    ground 

    And then 
    the men 
    who look 
    a little 

    like 
    they 
    felt 
    like me 

    Offered 
    them 
    some 
    bottled 
    water, 

    then 
    they 
    cut them 
    down 

    I 
    came 
    back 
    to 
    see 
    if you were 
    here, but 

    everything 
    was 
    different 

    Your voice 
    was 
    low, 
    you 
    blended 
    in, 

    I 
    could 
    barely hear 
    you speak 

    You 
    were always 
    my 
    last 
    second 

    bright 
    spot 
    in 
    the distance 

    Thought 
    that 
    you 
    were something 

    good 
    that I would always 
    keep 

    Verse 6
    I'll still 
    destroy 
    you some 
    day, sleep 
    well 

    beast, you as 
    well beast 

    I'll still 
    destroy you 
    some day, 
    sleep 
    well beast, 

    you as 
    well 
    beast 

    I'll still destroy 
    you some 
    day, sleep well beast, 

    you as well 
    beast 

    I'll still 
    destroy 
    you some day, 

    Outro 1
    sleep 
    well 
    beast, you as well 
    beast

    • 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

      Rose the Black Cat

      “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

      Tuliketsune

      “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 🙂”

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      “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!!!”

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      “This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!”

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      “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.”

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      “I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.”
