Intro
G# C# F D#
[Verse 1]
G#
Not half empty or full,
C#
I am unflappable,
F
The day washes over me like confetti waves,
D#
The brushes are already out,
G#
Badges I proudly wore,
C#
Form patterns on the floor,
F
The mornings that turn to afternoons under duvet covers will be over soon
D#
I’m sure, I’m almost sure,
[Chorus]
C# G# D# F
I’ve forgotten how to be surprised,
C# G# D# F
And I can easily think back to simpler times,
C# G# D# F
Without finding it agonising, even a bit,
[Verse 2]
G#
My practised apathy
C#
can’t compete with the real thing,
F
Holding on tight, staying in control,
My knuckles white,
D#
But not sure where to go from here,
G#
It’s time to make a choice,
C#
Which is the loudest voice?
F
I’ll take breaking apart bit by bit,
Absolutely, over the opposite,
D#
And I hope that I’m not alone.
[Chorus]
C# G# D# F
I’ve forgotten how to be surprised,
C# G# D# F
And I can easily think back to simpler times,
C# G# D# F C#
Without finding it agonising, even a bit,
