Intro
Em
[Verse]
Em
Call it what you want
Am C Am C
I see myself under water
Em
You call drowning swimming
Am C Am C
As you watch me swallow water
Em
Forget what I said
Am C
I emerge wet and screaming
Am C
bloody murder
[Chorus]
G D
And you might say I make myself
Am C
Into a marginal victim
G D
A baby crying hard until
Am
I get what I want
C G
but there is a friction
D Am C G
between, What I want and what I need
D Am C
And it is clear that I must scream
Am C
So I paddle harder
Am C
[Verse]
Em
Pain exists in ways you inflict
Am C Am C
The breaks you can’t solder
Em
Write about me, Live in your own world of hurt
Am C Am C
Steal the lake from the water
[Chorus]
G D
And I’ll conflate the ones who
Am C
Made me feel a part of their system
G D
Every screaming man gets what
Am C G
He wants and doesn’t know the difference
D Am C
Between what he wants and thinks he needs
G D Am C
And I always find myself to be
Am C
The loving martyr
Am C
I’m screaming like thunder
