Dm7

[Intro]

Dm7 C G

[Verse 1]

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

I used to dream I was a poster in a bedroom

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

Or the pictures that get cut out of the fancy magazines

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

Some tortured genius meant to leave the planet too soon

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

Living on champagne in the back of limousines

[Chorus]

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

Without really knowing why

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

While hoping that it dies

[Break]

Dm7 C G

[Verse 2]

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

Trading where I'm at for some future destination

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

Working for attention I'll eventually resent

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

Trying to ignore some of the darker implications

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

Of smiling for the camera with my hands in wet cement

[Chorus]

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

Without really knowing why

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

While hoping that it dies

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

Without really knowing why

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

While hoping that it dies

[Verse 3]

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

There's someone in my reflection that's been haunting me my whole life

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

There's a world outside my window I can barely even hear

Dm7 C G Dm7 C G

And I wonder to myself as I am straightening my bowtie:

Dm7 C G G

How can I look so perfect on the screen and so awful in the mirror?

[Chorus]

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

Without really knowing why

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

While hoping that it dies

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

Without really knowing why

Dm7 C G

Trying to feed the fire

Dm7 C G

While hoping that it dies

Dm7 C G

Hoping that it dies

Dm7 C G

Hoping that it dies

Dm7 C G

Hoping that it dies

[Outro]

Dm7 C G
