B A E
running short on imagination
B A E
still we waste it all on words
B A E B
spoken without the benefit of our minds

B A E
the candle burns the edges fray
B A E
our best intentions waste away
B A E B
and everybody loves the things we’ve done

and on and on and on

G A
life appears weightless
B A G
for everyone but me
A B B A B A
this world grows heavier everyday
G A
deterioration
B A G
growing old before my time
F# G A B
nobody cares never mind

B A E
we all prey on our vain condition
B A E
and the hopelessness of it all
B A E B
these days there’s nothing we can trust

B A E
the dreams we made we’ve seen them fade
B A E
trampled by out sad parade
B A E B
yet we’re so pleased with what we’ve done

and on and on and i’m done

G A
life appears weightless
B A G
for everyone but me
A B B A B A
this world grows heavier everyday
G A
deterioration
B A G
growing old before my time
F#
nobody cares

G A B
the mind breaks down when it dies
G
our machines doubled in size
A B
to orchestrate the grand collapse
G
i see us all trapped in its path
A B
there was a time we were unbound
G
as if we’d never hit the ground
A B
but just like rain we can’t keep from falling
