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