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