A#m C#
Looking back across the years through a million unshed tears
D#m A#m
How could I have held them all?
A#m C#
Oh the price that I have paid for all the love I never made
D#m A#m
Someone wrote up on the wall:
C# C#/C A#m
"How mighty is my pen...
C# C#/C A#m
if this is everywhere it's been?"
D#m A#m
Yes the wine's delicious, but I'm needing something stronger
D#m A#m
I'm growing suspicious that I won't be here much longer
C# C#/C A#m
Feels like I'm going down again.
C# C#/C A#m
Feels like I've lost my only friend

A#m C#
Crawling home from some saloon and all my strings are out of tune
D#m A#m
No one's around to break my fall
A#m C#
No attempt was ever made, so I slowly decayed
D#m A#m
Have a little faith in me, that's all
C# C#/C A#m C# C#/C A#m
"How mighty am I then, if this is everywhere I've been
D#m A#m
And as the daylight broke I cast no shadow on on the wall
D#m A#m
I will disintegrate until there's nothing left at all
C# C#/C A#m C# C#/C A#m
Feels like I'm going down again. Feels like I've lost my only friend
C# C#/C
G#5
And I never thought I'd see the day
F#5 D#5 G#5
My heroes all became psychotics
F#5 D#5 G#5
My drugs are all expensive exotics
F#5 D#5 G#5
My blood is thick with antibiotics
F#5 D#5 G#5
So I toss the coin to fate, it's only right
F#5 D#5 G#5
Take no blame so I can sleep so tight
F#5 D#5
You know that out of mind is also out of sight
C# C#/C A#m (x2)
D#m A#m
As the daylight broke I cast no shadow on on the wall
D#m A#m
I pass the closed apartment doors in rows along the hall
C# C#/C A#m
Feels like I'm going down again.
C# C#/C A#m
Feels like I've lost my only friend
