I guess you got what you wanted
You called me a bitch in the street
And well I guess I might have deserved it
But I'm getting back on my feet and I am
Complicated at best
I'm a live wire attached to your chest
and I'm growing and learning the lay of your land
I feel like I'm unimportant
When you call up and change the plan
Waiting til the very last minute
To say I'm in love with someone who is
Complicated at best
You're a live wire attached to my chest
and you're growing and learning the lay of my land
I've got something to say
And it's been on my mind quite a while
I don't know when I last heard you laughing
And I can't remember your smile cos we are
Complicated at best
We are live wires igniting the nest
And I just want to lay in the basement alone
Yeah we are complicated at best
We are live wires igniting the nest
And I just want to lay in the basement alone
lay in the basement alone
lay in the basement alone

G
Take it down I’m coming
C
I want my order even
G C
If I’m the last bitch in the bar
Em
I wanna see some sorrows
D C
Drowning out the screams that I still hear
D G
They gasp for air but once I’m done I’ll never hear from them again
G
I’ll tell you bout the worst thing
C
That ever happened to me
G C
You’ll feel so sick you’ll wanna cry
Em D C
At least for you it’s just a story one or two chapters too long
D G
If I could cut it down then just maybe I wouldn’t wanna die
G C Em
If I could sleep a little while
B7 C G D
You know that I would love to try and keep this body the upswing
G C Em
If I could fake another smile
B7 C G D
You know that I would love to try and keep this body on the upswing
G
Turn the pages corner
C
Each time you feel it coming
G C
The thunder of another night
Em D C
Coming so thick it sticks to everything you wish you could have said
D
but never can now that the mornings come
G
to bathe you in it’s light
G
Another smoke and tell me
C
You’re leaving on the exhale
G C
And you’ll be gone once that shit clears
Em D
And out the window see the traffic start to shake
C D
just like your vision is a wave that peaks before the drugs
G
take away the fear
G C Em
If I could sleep a little while
B7 C G D
You know that I would love to try and keep this body the upswing
G C Em
If I could fake another smile
B7 C G D
You know that I would love to try and keep this body on the upswing

MINOR KEY - DEMO
03:48
|

I’m trying to be
Something from nothing
Are you proud of me?
When it’s late night I’m wiping
The diner seat
And the bell on the door’s ringing
Over and over
In a minor key
And I’m looking for something
In the faces of these
Pictures that hang like
Abandoned keys
To a world that I’ve dreamed of
But I’ve never seen
With my own eyes I’m tired
And I’m starting to lean
Best believe that life is only what you make it on your own
It’s getting hard and it gets harder
You walk it back and think that maybe you should have done something more
And then you might have gotten farther
You’re such a disease
You’re dressing for sunday
It’s a hundred degrees
There’s a jam on the freeway
And the city sleaze
Is gonna sell you a new dream
For the price of a knee
In your back til you’re working
At 63
And you try to remember
All the dreams you let die
Getting drunk on the weekends
While life you passes by
And all the people that you see
Out the window below
Are praying hard for a break
Before the end of the show
Best believe that life is only what you make it on your own
It’s getting hard and it gets harder
You walk it back and think that maybe you should have done something more
And then you might have gotten farther
You didn’t make it on tv
Or learn how to drive
And it takes almost dying
To make you feel alive
And you’re overdrafts growing
Some limbs of it’s own
And the workday is endless
And you wanna go home
To the couch that remembers
The shape of your thighs
And you watch as your friends
Lose the fight in their eyes
When the target’s so small
You know it’s easy to miss
I guess it’s ok to fail when
Everyone else is
Best believe that life is only what you make it on your own
It’s getting hard and it gets harder
You walk it back and think that maybe you should have done something more
And then you might have gotten farther
I’m trying to be
Something from nothing
Are you proud of me?
When it’s late night I’m wiping
The diner seat
And the bell on the door’s ringing
Over and over
In a minor key

Sorry I’m barely here
I’m not sleeping much and I’m just
Feeling so tired all the time
Like a moth to a flame
I can’t close my eyes and I’m just
Feeling so tired all the time
So tired
Yeah I’m feeling so tired all the time
And it’s not a good feeling
Yeah it’s not a good feeling
Feeling so tired all the time
And I’m feeling so tired all the time
And it’s not a good feeling
No it’s not a good feeling
Feeling tired all the time
Look at me look at you
Wondering what you do to stop
Feeling so tired all the time
I’m a mess can’t think straight
My heads a ten tonne weight
I’m feeling so tired all the time
So tired
Yeah I’m feeling so tired all the time
And it’s not a good feeling
Yeah it’s not a good feeling
Feeling so tired all the time
And I’m feeling so tired all the time
And it’s not a good feeling
No it’s not a good feeling
Feeling tired all the time
