Intro: F#5  B5  E5  C#5

      F#m   Bm                      F#m         
Indeed I    have sucked it up to heights
    Bm              F#m
Unknown to those outside
     Bm            F#m
My body has contained and suppressed
      Bm
And swallowed and abetted
   F#m    Bm           F#m
Oh I am a stranger to myself
        Bm          F#m
Beneath altruism dwells
     Bm              
A force uncontended
  F#m           
A voice that is tempered
   Bm
To boiled and unhindered

(F#5  B5  E5  C#5)
Who am I kidding?
I am not some Mother Theresa
If I don't say something soon
I will break from the weight of the high road I take
No

(F#m   Bm)
Indeed I need my chance to fail
some room to unravel
I need a chance to blame for two minutes
unbridled, unbrazened
so I need imaginings of maiming
fantasies of outright screaming
I need a chance to thrash for minutes
uncontained, unforgiving

(F#5  B5  E5  C#5)
Who am I kidding?
I am not some Mother Theresa
If I don't do something soon
I will die from restraint
As a sick subjugate
No

(D5   C#5)
I will move beyond, I'm certain of tha
the sooner I go the quicker I'll be back
I would not threaten or cause you any harm
Have to get this out or my light will go out
