Complain

[Verse 1]
[D]I don't remember where this song came from... it was just 'there'. Though a number of the songs off of 'Sin' were written in the few weeks before recording started, this song was among [D]those that were veterans by that time, and, in fact, we even recorded a rough demo for 'Complain'. One of the notable items in this song is the two differ[D]ent lead vocal track sounds - one normal (and full sounding), while the other is very "mono" and slightly distorted. This wasn't only fun to do, but also created a "ask a question" and "give an answer" vibe to the various verses. On the last verse, of course,
the tracks are switched so that the answering track is then "asking the questions", so to speak. There's something deep there, I imagine...somewhere. I [D]still feel that this was the best song to start the album with. It's rough, strange, and hard to put your finger on... like much of 'Sin'.
This song 'lyrically' kicks [D]the album off just

[Verse 2]
as it should... dealing with our sin, our indecision in sin, and the results thereof. Though we may complain,
so much of the situ[C]ations that we find ourselves in are a direct result of our [G]selfish decisions. So much of the pain that we deal with emotion[D]ally and spiritually are a result of turning our back on the Lord. We may try to turn to the left or [C]to the right, to pass the blame or to play the victim, but we need [G]only look to ourselves to see the root of the is[D]sues we deal with.
Did you see my hands were tied?
I pierced this Savior's side
Well, what have I done?
(what have we become?)

[Verse 3]
and more words [D]to run it through
To crush anything in You
And to trip it up
it's simple though I'm tired
Been unmoved, uninspired

[Verse 4]
did you see my eyes were blind?
To even know what I had to find
[G]Much less [D]count the cost

[Verse 5]
(or count me for lost)
insane for another day
[D]So all is all right, okay
[G]I trip it u[D]p

[Verse 6]
[C]it's easy [G]though [D]I'm mad
[C]Weathered so [G]and [A]sad...

[Verse 7]
[C]to see the [G]lies in [D]me
And [A]why [C](i never try)
But [G]I'll stand[C][D]
[C](displeased) so cheap
[D]

[Verse 8]
did you see my mouth was closed?
[D]Of the priceless fill I know
[G]Not a wor[D]d to say
(i spoke anyway)

[Verse 9]
well, I cried for an inside
[D]An inside to realize
Oh, [G]how tripped [D]up

[Verse 10]
[C]it's dif[G]ferent though, I'm [D]strange
[C]I'll never[G], never [A]change...

[Verse 11]
[C]to see [G]the lies in me[D]
And [A]why [C](i never try)
[G]But I'll stand[D]
[C](displeased) so cheap
[D][G]

[Verse 12]
did [Bm]you[G][C][D][C][D]
see my head was dead?
[D]To any right or good that's [D]said
Would I bow?

[Verse 13]
(could you learn it now?)
sick for a little [D]hope
Hope that's a choke and joke
[G]Christ - trip me up I [D]really
[C]see[G] I'm[D] free
[C]When [G]You carry [A]me...

[Verse 14]
[C]to see [G]the lies I be[D]lieve
And [A]why [C](i'd ever try)
And I can [G]pray [D](so[C] deep) rece[D]ived
[C]
