[Intro]
Bm
[Verse 1]
BmSome resist the future, some refuse the Empast
EmEither way, it's messed up if we can't unplug the Bmfact
BmThat a world covered in cables was never wired to Emlast
EmSo don't act so surprised when the program starts to Bmcrash
[Pre-Chorus]
N.C.                                              Bm  G  
How do I form a connection when we can't even shake hands?
GYou're like a phantom Emgreeting me
BmWe plot in the shadows, hang out in the gaGllows
GStuck in a loop Emfor eternity
[Chorus]
   GDo you know Emwhy the flowers never Bmbloom?
Will you reBmtry or Alet the pain resGume?
I need a new Emleader, we need a new BmLuden
(BmA new Luden, new Luden, yeah)
   GSo come outsEmide, it's time to see the Bmtide
It's out of Bmsight, but never out of Gmind
I need a new Emleader, we need a new BmLuden
[Interlude]
Bm
[Verse 2]
BmSticks and stones may break my bones but soon the sting will Empass
EmBut names can dig so many graves, you won't know where to Bmstand
BmAnd I don't feel secure no more unless I'm being Emfollowed
And the Emonly way to hide myself is to Bmgive 'em one hell of a show
