Verse
F#
I love you, I hate you, I'm on the fence, it all depends
F#
Whether I'm up or down, I'm on the mend, transcending all reality
F#
I like you, despise you, admire you
F#
What are we gonna do when everything all falls through?
F#
I must confess, I've made a mess of what should be a small success
F#
But I digress, at least I've tried my very best, I guess
F#
This, that, the other, why even bother?
F# F# E D# C#
It won't be with me on my deathbed, but I'll still be in your head
Chorus
F# A B F# A B
Put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you
F# A B F# A B
Tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you
F# A B F# A B
Give me all your money, and I'll make some origami, honey
F# A B A#m7
I think you're a joke, but I don't find you very funny
F# F# E D# C#
verse 2
F#
It's scratched and drifting, I've become attached to the idea
F#
It's all a shifting dream, bittersweet philosophy
F#
I've got no idea how I even got here
F#
I'm resentful, I'm having an existential time crisis
F#
Want bliss, daylight savings won't fix this mess
F#
Under-worked and over-sexed, I must express my disinterest
F# F# E D# C#
The rats are back inside my head, what would Freud have said?
Chorus
verse 3
F#
I wanna wash out my head with turpentine, cyanide
F#
I decide this internal diatribe
F#
When I try to catch you right, I hate seeing you cry
F#
In the kitchen, I don't know why it affects me like this
F#
When you're not even mine to consider
F#
Erroneous, harmonious, I'm hardly sanctimonious
F#
Dirty clothes, I suppose we all outgrow ourselves
F#
I'm a fake, I'm a phony, I'm awake, I'm alone
F#
I'm homely, I'm a Scorpio
Chorus
