“No Words”
Capo 1
Em Am G D7
Spoken:
the computational theory of mind states that thoughts are just data, sent and received
and if the mind is a machine who can say, what does any of it mean?
[Pre-Chorus]
if I could Emget it down on paper we could Amtry to decode
but IG’m composed to concepts and thouD7ghts that don’t flow
if you could lEmook in my eyes, see what I’m thAminking you’d know
that the wordGs are there, I sweD7ar
[Verse 1]
but they’re sEmhapes and sounds and coAmlors in the sunrise,
they’re a hGaze that doesn’t translaD7te
“stop stalEmling, spit it out!” it’s on the tiAmp of my tongue
if onGly I could articulD7ate
there’s someEmthing to be said for “some pAmeace of mind”
but I’m wGay past that now unless the stD7ars align
it’s like the mEmore I try to focus the lAmess I can see
is it my haGrdware that’s damaged? is something D7wrong with me?
[Pre-Chorus]
if I could Emget it down on paper we could Amtry to decode
but IG’m composed to concepts and thouD7ghts that don’t flow
if you could lEmook in my eyes, see what I’m thAminking you’d know
that the wordGs are there, I sweD7ar
[Chorus]
and I Emhave to be a living thinking beAming, I have to be
but the mGusic in my mind is so alD7ien to me
it makes meEmaning so coherent in a lanAmguage I don’t speak
but the wGords are there, I sweaD7r
I get anEmgry sometimes when it’s bad, Amlate at night
when the deGmons decide they’re gonna D7put up a fight
when the Emwhite noise is stifling any tAmhought I thought I had
the wGords were there, I D7swear
[Verse 2]
I’m alEmready foggy, guess i’ll drown iAmt in smoke
I tell you G“I’m not an addict I’m juD7st trying to cope”
but coEmping isn’t calming I’m so fuckiAmng high strung
I just wannGa take it easy but my minD7d’a gotta run
i’d loEmve to say “no worries” but I’m Amhigh and alone
and I haGven’t got the words i need to piD7ck up the phone
I guEmess I’ll be okay if I can staAmll the defeat
for now my Gfingers work the strings and I’m still kD7eeping a beat
[Pre-Chorus]
if I could Emget it down on paper we could Amtry to decode
but IG’m composed to concepts and thouD7ghts that don’t flow
if you could lEmook in my eyes, see what I’m thAminking you’d know
that the wordGs are there, I sweD7ar
[Chorus 2]
and I Emhave to be a living thinking beAming, I have to be
but the mGusic in my mind is still D7alien to me
it writes vEmerses out poetic in a code Amthat I can't read
but the wGords are there, I sweaD7r
I get nuEmmber sometimes when it’s badAm, late at night
when the deGmons decide that I'm wronD7g and they're right
when the Emststic is stifling I want onlAmy to scream
but tGhe words are there, D7I swear
[Verse]
but they’re sEmhapes and sounds and coAmlors in the sunrise,
they’re a hGaze that doesn’t translaD7te
“stop stalEmling, spit it out!” it’s on the tiAmp of my tongue
if onGly I could articulD7ate
[Pre-Chorus 2]
if I could Emget it down on paper we could Amtry to decode
but IG’m composed to theories and thouD7ghts that don’t flow
if you'd see iEmnto my mind, to what I'm thinkiAmng you’d know
that the wordGs are there, I sweD7ar
Spoken:
(chords repeat)
but meaning is subjective, it’s just processing thought.
just input and output, neurons firing shot
the words are there, I swear
but if nothing has a meaning maybe everything does,
maybe we all like to label everything just because
it’s easier to deal with in semantics we know,
without the comfort of language thoughts are white noise and snow.
and without labels there’s way too much for our words to define,
it’s all feelings and data untethered to time...
the words are there, I swear.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
if I could Emget it down on paper we could Amtry to decode
but IG’m composed to theories and thouD7ghts that don’t flow
if you'd see iEmnto my mind, to what I'm thinkiAmng you’d know
that the wordGs are there, I sweD7ar
the words are there, I swear

Capo 1
Em Am G D7
Spoken:
the computational theory of mind states that thoughts are just data, sent and received
and if the mind is a machine who can say, what does any of it mean?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Am
if I could get it down on paper we could try to decode
G D7
but I’m composed to concepts and thoughts that don’t flow
Em Am
if you could look in my eyes, see what I’m thinking you’d know
G D7
that the words are there, I swear
[Verse 1]
Em Am
but they’re shapes and sounds and colors in the sunrise,
G D7
they’re a haze that doesn’t translate
Em Am
“stop stalling, spit it out!” it’s on the tip of my tongue
G D7
if only I could articulate
Em Am
there’s something to be said for “some peace of mind”
G D7
but I’m way past that now unless the stars align
Em Am
it’s like the more I try to focus the less I can see
G D7
is it my hardware that’s damaged? is something wrong with me?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Am
if I could get it down on paper we could try to decode
G D7
but I’m composed to concepts and thoughts that don’t flow
Em Am
if you could look in my eyes, see what I’m thinking you’d know
G D7
that the words are there, I swear
[Chorus]
Em Am
and I have to be a living thinking being, I have to be
G D7
but the music in my mind is so alien to me
Em Am
it makes meaning so coherent in a language I don’t speak
G D7
but the words are there, I swear
Em Am
I get angry sometimes when it’s bad, late at night
G D7
when the demons decide they’re gonna put up a fight
Em Am
when the white noise is stifling any thought I thought I had
G D7
the words were there, I swear
[Verse 2]
Em Am
I’m already foggy, guess i’ll drown it in smoke
G D7
I tell you “I’m not an addict I’m just trying to cope”
Em Am
but coping isn’t calming I’m so fucking high strung
G D7
I just wanna take it easy but my mind’a gotta run
Em Am
i’d love to say “no worries” but I’m high and alone
G D7
and I haven’t got the words i need to pick up the phone
Em Am
I guess I’ll be okay if I can stall the defeat
G D7
for now my fingers work the strings and I’m still keeping a beat
[Pre-Chorus]
Em Am
if I could get it down on paper we could try to decode

but I’m composed to concepts and thoughts that don’t flow
Em Am
if you could look in my eyes, see what I’m thinking you’d know
G D7
that the words are there, I swear
[Chorus 2]
Em Am
and I have to be a living thinking being, I have to be
G D7
but the music in my mind is still alien to me
Em Am
it writes verses out poetic in a code that I can't read
G D7
but the words are there, I swear
Em Am
I get number sometimes when it’s bad, late at night
G D7
when the demons decide that I'm wrong and they're right
Em Am
when the ststic is stifling I want only to scream
G D7
