[Verse 1]
Who [D]gave
[Am]us estimates of ru[D]nning time[Em]?[D]
Who escal[Am]ated our in[D]tent
of absolute reas[A]on [C#dim]or rhyme?[D]
Offering pipe [Am]dreams in [D]a bamboo
[Gm]guise[C][D]
[Am]Obviously getting off [D]on washing our [C]saliva drown our
[F]eyes[Dm][G][C][G]
[C][Em][G][Em][A][D][F#][B][A][F#]
[D]You steal [Am]my sustenance to[D] give me life
[Em]Rath[A]er elimi[D]na[Am]te my[D]
only breath and suck my
[A]Imp[D]ulse dry, reptil[Am]e
who [C]poses [D]as a paternal [Gm]love[Bb][Gm][D][Am][D]

[Am][F][D][Am][D][C][F]
[C]Now's my chance,
[A]but[D] can I [Dm]turn back?[G][C]
Dependency has placed ac
[Em]quisition [Am]up too f[F]ar
on the power I've [Dm]been offered.

[Em]Has only s[A]carred my [D]view,
hand [Am]me a [C]number lik[D]e a
baker's [Em]clerk.[D]
The end [C]result is not [D]the product
of how [Em]hard or [A]fast I [D]work
Why [Am]waste a score
[C]for[Am] year[D]s on theory
[Gm]The [C]ory [D]won't give[Am] me[C]
what [D]I thought it would
[C]Just fabric memory
[D]You tol[Am]d me I was beyond
hand[D]s of [Em]fate[A]
[D]You promise[Am]d with my
charm and intellect
[D]I'd[G] ear[Em]n my hei[A]r estat[D]e
Whose is the fruit that you've been peddling?
