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