[Verse 1]
F#
Traveling light’s how it usually goes
F
Mind open wide with heart open closed
A#m
Start at the bottom, but time only knows
D#
Unravel the tale of the world that I chose
F#
Seek an answer in an infinite skyline
F
F promising refrain
A#m D#
But the meaning tends to vanish when it’s Me, Myself and I again
F# F
I don’t complain about it. I just don’t have the time
A#m D#
Half the time, wondering whether the weather will give me some sunshine
F# F
Reaching outward, for a life line, that I won’t find, in this lifetime
A#m D#
Descend into dystopia created in my mind
F# F
Cuz it’s not fine, and it hasn’t been for a while now
A#m
It feels like a struggle to smile now
D#
Like is anything really worth while, how can it be?
F# F7
Trial and error kinda lifestyle that I lead
Leaving me high and dry
A#m D#
I can smile with basically anyone, but the riddle’s in who I can frown beside
F# F
My chaotic good alliance, a “forget about it” revelation
A#m D#
Solitary confinement in a wet and crowded station
F# F7
Chase the faded light within the dark, a life inside quotation marks
A#m
Maybe something’s missing in this
D#
Overcast heart, I’m always...
[Chorus]
F#
Reaching out, shying away
F
Don’t feel like you gotta stay
A#m
Better keep it “just me”
D#
It’s better that way, trust me
F# F7
Despite my distorted and selfish heart
A#m D#
Thinking you and I could be alike so why be apart? I figure....
F#
Let’s be (let’s be)
F
Lonely (lonely)
A#m D#
Together, till the weather clears up, that’s enough, like
F# F
Hazy skyscrapers fading to the sky
A#m
Sora ni kietai, side by side
D#
Gotta leave it all behind
[Verse 2]
F# F
F broken heart was blinded by a beautiful mind
A#m D#
And even IF I could rewind I think I’ll likely wind up lying in a
F# F
desperate kind of silence deep inside of this soul
A#m D#
To where my heart is, where the darkness tends to swallow me whole, we’re told to
F#
Smile for those you feel like you owe it
F
Conceal unhappiness, never show it
A#m
Get into character, everyone’s watching
D#
Staring, comparing there’s no sign of stopping
F# F
I’m dead on my feet but I’m also dead set on not dropping
A#m
But someone explain why I wish everyone would stop talking?
N.C.
Better start walking
F#
If today is a day you don’t wanna pretend
F
I accept that
A#m
We forget being human is never a set back
D#
Staying true to yourself? Don’t regret that
F#
F weakness is strength, I respect that
F
Speaking up is impossible, nobody gets that
A#m D#
Wanna spell it out with a melody, keep on telling myself
It’ll turn into something
F# F
Burning inside as I’m learning this life is eternally searching for anyone else who
A#m
Can say that they’ve “felt that.”
D#
My sense of my self has me held back
F# F
Continue chasing that reflection of my innermost pain
A#m D#
Within the weary smile of someone else I thought was the same
[Chorus]
F#
Reaching out, shying away
F
Don’t feel like you gotta stay
A#m
Better keep it “just me”
D#
It’s better that way, trust me
F# F7
Despite my distorted and selfish heart
A#m D#
Thinking you and I could be alike so why be apart? I figure....
F#
Let’s be (let’s be)
F7
Lonely (lonely)

[Chorus]
F#
Reaching out, shying away
F
Don’t feel like you gotta stay
A#m
Better keep it “just me”
D#
It’s better that way, trust me
F# F7
Despite my distorted and selfish heart
A#m D#
Really you and I are not alike, so let’s keep apart. I’ll kick it
F#
Just me (just me)
F7
Lonely (lonely)
A#m D# F# F7
Forever, cuz whenever I stop and I look in your eyes
A#m D# F# F7 A#m D#m F3 F7 A#m D#
I realize “that you” just exists within my mind
[Outro]
F# F7
I’m just a hazy skyscraper fading to the sky
A#m D#
Be like a hazy skyscraper fading to the sky
F# F7
Forever hazy skyscrapers fading to the sky
A#m D# F#
Hazy skyscraper... really, there’s no place I belong
