[Intro]
EmWhen we were Ayounger we saw BmGod's face in our fathers
Now that Emall our heroes Adied, we're all alDone
[Verse 1]
DWhere to begin, the lights are fading
ASongs are played out, legs are shaking
EmTired hands they reach for something Gmore than they can see
But waking Dup is hard to do
When you've got Anothing left to lose
And you've got Emnothing left to choose
Except for Gcigarettes and booze, they tell you
[Chorus]
"EmDon't rely on other people's Aeyes to see your life"
But we're still Bmtrying to break mirrors inside this
GFun house of denial and wondering
EmWhere do we go next, do we go Anext

[Verse 2]
DWhere to begin, the stakes are raising
ACrowd's drawing close, my body's shaking
EmTired hands they reach for something
GI've never been so sure that I can't Ddo this anymore
I forget Awhat we do it for I guess I Emget a little bored
With trying to Gspill my heart out on four chords
[Chorus]
I Emdon't rely on other people's Aeyes to see my life
But I'm still Bmtrying to break mirrors inside this
GFucking fun house of denial and wondering
EmWhere do we go next, do we go Anext

[Bridge]
EmIt's not that I'm not happy Awith where I'm at
I just thought I'd be Amore than this
All these things on my Dbucket list, thought I'd be linguist
But if I Cdie right now what'll be left of me?
So I'm sCtuck here writing my own eulogy
But if it was Cyou and me I could find some peace
And the fact Coverreaction is just a way out of this for me

Now that all our heroes died, we're all alone

But waking up is hard to do

When you've got nothing left to lose

And you've got nothing left to choose

Except for cigarettes and booze, they tell you

[Chorus]

But we're still trying to break mirrors inside this

Fun house of denial and wondering

Where do we go next, do we go next

With trying to spill my heart out on four chords

So I'm stuck here writing my own eulogy

But if it was you and me I could find some peace

And the fact overreaction is just a way out of this for me
