[Verse 1]
He [G]was in his room, half awake, half [Em]asleep
The walls of [G]the room seem
to alter angles
[D]Elongating and [Em]shrinking [C]altern[G]ately
Then twisting [D]around com[Em]pletely
so that [C]he was on the [G]opposite
Side of the [D]room
A trick of the [Em]light and too [C]much caffeine,
he [G]thought[Em][D][Ebdim][Em]
Then came [G]a knock on the door
And this sound was [Em]the same dark-brown
tone tone as the [G]wood of which
The door [D]was made
[Em]At first, he t[G]hought he'd imagined it[D]
[Eb]Because it w[B]ould not have [Em]been
[G]out of place with the other
Strange [D]hallucin[Em]atory events of that night
[G]But then it came again
[D]Only heavier this [Bm]time[Em]
With [G]a sense [Em]of real [B]urgency
[Em]So pulling himself up
[G]And step[Em]ping through pools of
moonlight and [Bm]shadow
[G]He mad[D]e his bleary way across
the [Em]room to[G]wards the door
An[D]d slowly, [Em]apprehensively,
[G]rai[D]sed[Em] the latch

[Verse 2]
[Em]The latch became a fingertip,
touching his [Bm]own[B][Em][D]
[Em][G][Em]
Energy [G]sapping [Em]as a [G]new form,
[Em]transversing the edge of his
Emotions
His power became his [G]agony,
[Em]his power knew no boun[D]ds
[Em]Whereas before,
his [G]peace withstood the vast[D]ness
His [Em]prerogative became an endless
[G]for[Em]ce of the all impossible
[G]His final soul [Em]is flyi[B]ng
with [Em]contempt [D]only
[Em]Even the legendary glance backward
[G]to meet with etern[D]ity's stone
[B]In [Em]peace or [G]save his already destroyed
[D]You cannot [B]share,[Em][G][D][B][Em][G]
[D][B][Em][G]
[Em][F#][Em]
[G][D][B][Em][Bm][Em]
[G]the tem[D]perature [B]is [Em]rising
[G]The ghost and monkeys make [D]a c[Em]hoice
[G]Thi[Em]s...[B][Em]
[G]This...[D][Em]

[Verse 3]
[G]He tried to will himself back to bed
[D]He [Em]wanted [B]desperately [Em]to feel the
reassuring [G]cris[D]p, white sheets
[Em]Once taken for [D]granted
[Em]To be back home, safe as[G] houses,
protected by walls [D]covered in
Familiar pat[Em]terns
[G]But even wallpaper had
become [D]sinister [Ebdim]to him
[B]He [Em]remem[G]bered staring into the
paisley [D]print and seeing [C]a
Repetition [G]of skulls
[D]At night he would listen [Em]to the click
of heels on the concrete
[C]Outside
[D]And try to ima[Em] gine the facial
features [C]of the unseen [G]figure[D]
[Em]He would always see his own face
[G]And another realization of this pro[D]ph
[B]ecy rang [Em]terrible and true
For at this moment, it was indeed,
his own feet that filled [G]the
[Em]Shoes
Shoes that no man [B]would want
[Em]to wear

[Interlude 1]
[G][Em][G]

[Verse 4]
[Em]Into the [B]hill[Em]s then [G]to search for
another search[D]er's [Em]closely
Held [G]goals
Into [D]the forest [Em]unde[G]r the
[C]billow[G]ing lea[D]ves[Eb]
[B]Under[Em] the drea[G]dful bir[Em]ds, the singing soil,
[G]the decre[Em]pid bab[G]ies,
[D]The [Eb]un h[Em]appy new loves
[G]The [D]preaching [B]alp[Em]habetics,
the [G]long-lost lovers never [D]to find[B]
The safety of [Em]their mothers
[G]In fact, all [D]the [Eb]guilty [Em]clouds he
[G]will move [D]into a [B]playground
[Em]A sense of moonlight and s[G]hadow
All the [D]stars [Eb]touc[B]h to t[Em]he co[G]ld mol[D] ten[Em] sunf[B]low[Em]er,[G]
[D]fly to [B]his
[Em]Middle [G]eye[Em]
[G]The [D]wal[Eb]lpape[B]r[Em]
had [G]sinister [B]tones
Alas, [G]white [D]cold[Eb][B]
[Em]Alas, [G]rai[Em]nbow's mi[G]ddle[D][B]
[Em]infinity's destina[G]tion[D].
