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

G#m B
Crawling home from some saloon and all my strings are out of tune
C#m G#m
No one's around to break my fall
G#m B
No attempt was ever made, so I slowly decayed
C#m G#m
Have a little faith in me, that's all
B B/A# G#m B B/A# G#m
"How mighty am I then, if this is everywhere I've been
C#m G#m
And as the daylight broke I cast no shadow on on the wall
C#m G#m
I will disintegrate until there's nothing left at all
B B/A# G#m B B/A# G#m
Feels like I'm going down again. Feels like I've lost my only friend
B B/A#
F#5
And I never thought I'd see the day
E5 C#5 F#5
My heroes all became psychotics
E5 C#5 F#5
My drugs are all expensive exotics
E5 C#5 F#5
My blood is thick with antibiotics
E5 C#5 F#5
So I toss the coin to fate, it's only right
E5 C#5 F#5
Take no blame so I can sleep so tight
E5 C#5
You know that out of mind is also out of sight
B B/A# G#m (x2)
C#m G#m
As the daylight broke I cast no shadow on on the wall
C#m G#m
I pass the closed apartment doors in rows along the hall
B B/A# G#m
Feels like I'm going down again.
B B/A# G#m
Feels like I've lost my only friend
