Introduction:
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
I used to think about what's real and true,
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
what cannot be proven, what can be assumed.
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
Once when I was younger in the bloom of youth,
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
I received an honest answer when a lie would do.
F G
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
Am C
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
F G
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
Am
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
Interlude
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
I used to think Galileo would agree
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
that the world was round and you'd come round to me.
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
But I have looked for you and you're nowhere in sight
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
the world must be flat, the Babylonians were right.
F G
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
Am C
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
F G
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
Am
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
Interlude
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
I used to think: consider gravity,
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
but I placed you on a pedestal you'd slip and fall for me.
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
But you floated on the air, far away at light speed,
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
I guess some objects do defy the laws that we conceive.
F G
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
Am C
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
F G
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
Am
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
Interlude

Am Am/C Am/G Am/F

Interlude
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
I used to think it took all my time,
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
analyzing you your mind on my mind.
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
Your name, my mantra, repeated on my lips,
Am Am/C Am/G Am/F
that once tried to kiss you, a memory unrepressed.
F G
And now all I do is sit in my darkened room
Am C
and on occasion break my silence to howl at the moon.
F G
To curse every nerve and neuron in my brain
Am
that won't stop the pain I'm feeling and let me stop thinking.
