EmYou see me now a veEm7teran of a thAousand psychic Emwars
EmI've been living on Em7the edge so Along, where the Emwinds of limbo roar
And I'm yAoung enough to Emlook at, and Afar too old to Emsee
All the sCcars are on the Eminside
AI'm not sure that there's anything left of Bme
DonAm't let these shakes Emgo on, it'Ams time we had Ema break from iAmtEm  Am  Em  
It's Ctime we had some Emleave
Figure 1
We've been living in the flames
Figure 1
We've been eating up our brains
Figure 2
Oh please, don't let these shakes go on.

EmYou ask me why I'm Em7weary, why I Acan't speak to Emyou
EmYou blame me for my Em7silence, say Ait's time I chEmanged and grew
But the wAar's still goinEmg on, dear, aAnd there's no eEmnd that I know
And I canC't stand foreverEm  
AI can't say if we're ever gonna be freBe
DonAm't let these shakes Emgo on, it'Ams time we had Ema break from iAmtEm  Am  Em  
It's Ctime we had some Emleave

EmYou see me now a veEm7teran of a thAousand psychic Emwars
EmMy energy is spent Em7at last, and Amy armor is desEmtroyed
I have usAed up all my weEmapons, and I'Am helpless and Embereaved
Wounds arCe all I'm made oEmf
ADid I hear you say that this is victorBy?
DonAm't let these shakes Emgo on, it'Ams time we had Ema break from iAmtEm  Am  Em  
Send Cme to the rearEm  
Figure 1
Where the tides of madness swell
Figure 1
And men sliding into hell
