and i’ll have all this room

i got tired of pacing the floor
sick of it all , i’m done with the floor
walked away ever since i got a new job climbing the walls

i was grinding my teeth , i was wasting my youth
and using up my teeth
now i’m done chewing my nails
hanging my head , chasing my tail
it got so bad i quit my job
then i got a new job climbing the walls

( 1 : 45 ) interlude : Dm / C F / Em Am / G C

the deep end , the deep end
people talk a lot , but they don’t know
they pretend , they pretend
they don’t really know how deep it goes

now i misunderstood ,
thought the wall was just good
for staring blankly at

i got tired of pacing the floor
sick of it all , i’m done with the floor
walked away ever since i got a new job climbing the walls

now i’m done chewing my nails
hanging my head , chasing my tail
it got so bad i quit my job
then i got a new job climbing the walls
got a new job climbing the walls
got a new job climbing the walls
