[Intro] G#m F# E D#m x2 [Verse 1]

G#m
Am I correct to defend the fist that holds this pen?

B            E
Its ink that lies

             D#m
The pen, the prose, the paper

G#m
I live, I learn

B                                 E
You will always take what I have earned

              D#m
And so aid my end while I believe I'm winning

[Pre-Chorus 1]

 G#m
Our friends speak out in our defense

    F#                E           D#m
Pay ten deaf ears for two months rent

     G#m               B
We burn the gallows they erect

    F#             E        D#m
And cut the nooses they tie for our necks

[Chorus]

B                       F#               G#m
You constantly make it impossible to make conversation

        F#
We're comatose but audible

    E  D#m           F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out

B                       F#
We pass it off but it's all on us

    G#m
For common conversation

         F#
It took everything I got

    E  D#m            F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out

[Verse 2]

G#m
Once said, always said

I will hold the past over your head

B                  E          D#m
I'll speak my mind whenever I feel slighted

G#m           B                        D#m
I am hellbent on extracting all of my revenge

B                  E            D#m
Take heart, sweetheart, or I will take it from you

[Pre-Chorus 2]

  G#m
I slip concealed back to the keep

     F#              E      D#m
Concede to do the work for free

    G#m             B
We prey as wolves among the sheep

     F#                E                 D#m
And slit the necks of soldiers while they sleep

[Chorus]

B                       F#               G#m
You constantly make it impossible to make conversation

        F#
We're comatose but audible

    E  D#m           F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out

B                       F#
We pass it off but it's all on us

    G#m
For common conversation

         F#
It took everything I got

    E  D#m            F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out

(Instrumental) [Chorus]

B                       F#               G#m
You constantly make it impossible to make conversation

        F#
We're comatose but audible

    E  D#m           F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out

B                       F#
We pass it off but it's all on us

    G#m
For common conversation

         F#
It took everything I got

    E  D#m            F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out

B                       F#               G#m
You constantly make it impossible to make conversation

        F#
We're comatose but audible

    E  D#m           F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out

B                       F#
We pass it off but it's all on us

    G#m
For common conversation

         F#
It took everything I got

    E  D#m            F#       E
And I like it the farther I get out
