verse 1
Bm
Can't stop thinking about if and when I'll die
Bm
For now I see that 'if' and 'when' are truly different cries
Bm
For 'if' is purely panic and 'when' is solemn sorrow
Bm F/A#
And one invades today while the other spies tomorrow
Bm Em
We're surrounded and we're hounded
Bm Em
There's no 'above', or 'under', or 'around' it
Bm Em
For 'above' is blind belief and 'under' is sword to sleeve
Bm Bm9 Bm
And 'around' is scientific miracle, let's pick 'above' and see
Bm Em
For if and when we go 'above', the question still remains
Bm Em
Are we still in love and is it possible we feel the same?
Bm Em
And that's when going 'under' starts to take my wonder
Bm Bm9 Bm
But until that time, I'll try to sing this
F#m Bm
If I keep moving, they won't know
F#m
I'll morph to someone else
Bm
What they throw at me's too slow
F#m
I'll morph to someone else
Bm
I'm just a ghost
F#m
I'll morph to someone else

verse 2
Bm Em
He'll always try to stop me, that Nicholas Bourbaki
Bm Em
He's got no friends close but those who know him most know
Bm Em
He goes by Nico, he told me I'm a copy
Bm Em
When I'd hear him mock me that's almost stopped me
Bm Em
Well we're surrounded and we're hounded
Bm Em
There's no above or a secret door. what are we here for
Bm Em
If not to run straight through all our tormentors?
Bm Em
But until that time I'll try and sing this...
F#m Bm
If I keep moving, they won't know
F#m
I'll morph to someone else

What they throw at me's too slow
F#m
I'll morph to someone else

F#m
I'll morph to someone else

Bm9 Em
Lights they blink to me, transmitting things to me
Bm9 Em
Ones and zeroes, ergo this symphony
Bm9 Em
Anybody listening? Ones and zeroes
Bm9 Em
Count to infinity, ones and zeroes
Bridge 2
Bm9 Em
I'm surrounded and I'm hounded
