Dbsus2 

I didn’t expect to see you here – 
I mean outside, smoking. 
                                 Gb2 
I’m more of a nicorette girl these days. 
Ab 
I’m joking. 
Dbsus 
I mean – I did quit. 
                              Gb 
But who feels like joking now? 
Ab/Gb    Gb2      Ab  
I’ll see you your scowl 
Ab 
And raise you a furrowed brow. 

Anyway. 
Dbsus2  
Anyway. 

Ab  
            Dbsus 
Do you remember how we used to read 
Ab 
Rilke, Joyce? 
        Dbsus 
And we barely understood it, 
        Ab            Dbsus2  
But it gave us a voice 
Or a language… 
Ab 
I don’t read poetry anymore. 
Dbsus       Db2  
But if I did, 
       Absus2                      Bbm9 
I’d be reading it tonight for sure. 
Absus2 Ab  Absus2  
Oh. Oh. 

              Dbsus2              Ab 
I keep thinking about how the timing seems false. 
          Dbsus2                  Ab 
How some days seem faster than my fucking pulse. 
    Dbsus2 
And others go so slow. 
                Gb2  
Like this morning 
                Absus2  
Feels like a month ago. 
Gb2/Bb Absus2  
Oh. Oh. 
Gb2/Bb Absus2  
Oh. Oh. 

Absus2 
I feel like I’m underwater. 
I feel like I’m underwater. 
        Ab  
I feel like I’m underwater. 
Anyway. 
Dbsus2  
Anyway. 

Ab  
There’s this building you pass 
Ab 
On the subway to Queens. 
Ab 
It’s on the L or the R or the one that’s green. 
Ab 
It’s covered in tags, 
Ab 
Bright hieroglyphics. 
                  Ab  
These fifteen-year-olds – 
They’re so fucking prolific. 
        Dbsus2 
I’m commuting, 
Dbsus2 
I’m eating my goddamn apple 
And they’re secretly painting their Sistine Chapel. 
        Gb2/Bb Ab/Bb Gb2/Bb 
But whatever, 
Absus2   Ab      Absus2   Gb2 Ab/Gb GbM9 
It’s like they know their odds. 
Db/F 
If you're gonna die young, 
Ebm7             Absus2 Gbsus2 Ab  Gbsus2 
You'd better live like gods. 
Ab    Gbsus2 
Gods. 
Ab    Gbsus2 
Gods. 

And me? 
Bbm11 
I’m not doing anything. 
Ab  
I’m not helping or cleaning. 
                 Bbm11 
I’m not even crying. 
I’m not doing anything. 
                Absus4 
She’d be so goddamn helpful. 
                                 Ab/Gb 
Well, fuck her for dying ’cause I, 
I’m not writing her elegy. 
    Ab2 
Not me. 
                          Ab/Gb 
I’m not writing that down. 
Ab7sus4                   Bbm11 
They would scrawl her name on a city wall 
         Ab  
But I’m a fucking clown. 
                Gb2 
I’m making jokes 
So I don’t drown. 
        Gb2  
I feel like I’m underwater. 
        Ab  
I feel like I’m underwater. 
        Gb2  
I feel like I’m underwater. 
        Ab  
I feel like I’m underwater. 
        Gb2  
Like the whole world is underwater. 
        Ab 
Like I’m screaming out underwater. 
        Gb2                      Ab  
I feel like I’m underwater these days. 
Gb2 Dbsus2  
Anyways. 
Anyway. 

                  Dbsus2  
I didn’t expect to see you here. 
I mean – thanks for coming. 
                                   Gb2             Ab  
I thought you’d oppose the use of religious rites as numbing. 
Dbsus2  
I mean – it is dumb. 
                               Gb  Ab/Gb 
But what if she can hear them pray? 
Gb2   Ab  
I mean what the fuck do we know? 
Ab 
Who are we to say? 
Ab 
If there was anyway. 
    Dbsus2  
Anyway.
