Lovejoy – Privately Owned Spiral Galaxy (Guitar)

Cm                    Eb
Thought cycle gusty a mind filled with hot air

       Ab                           Eb
Must I care for nothing more than myself?

     G              Cm                                       Eb
Do I dare admit the fraught thoughts cavorting, resorting in inner-directed mourning,

        Ab                               Eb             G
for the part of me that was selfless but left without a warning

     Cm                                     Eb
Well that’s what I said, but maybe it’s the fact that I detest,

       Ab                                Eb             G
This obsession with myself that leaves a mess inside my head

             Cm                        Eb
Oh shit, I’m doing it again, repelling any potential friend,

          Ab                   Eb          G           Cm
revealing my innate ability to never fully comprehend, anything bigger

                        Eb
than myself, but in the end I still pretend

    Ab                             Eb            G
Condescend anyone polite enough to choose to misspend their time

Cm                      Eb
watching me achieve, my secret social mission;

   Ab                          Eb           G
To drain people with my boring stories and opinions

   Cm                              Eb
To see the bigger picture; takes intelligence and wisdom

      Ab                            Eb         G
But I won’t see nothing with just myself in my vision

        Cm                        Eb                       Ab
I go outside, a blitz of faces unwilling to confess to any empathy,

                    Eb           G           Cm
endlessly, incessantly declining any pleasantries

                                Eb                            Ab
Heavily breathing, I'm socially teething, I’m open like a vivisection

                    Eb              G              Cm
Intense tendency to dwell, seething over missed connections.

                  Eb
Infected by my perception that I’m a non-entity

   Ab                         Eb         G
Project my insecurity until intensity is weaponry

Cm                            Eb                                   Ab
Grieving a heavenly fiction I perceived while I was dreaming. Awake

                         Eb                   G
Freezing, wheezing, fundamentally I’m still believing that

Cm                            Eb
This is an elegy for concepts I conceived in deep sleep

      Ab                               Eb     G                  Cm
And I helplessly watch them fade as I awake I try and keep them alive

                  Eb
Incomparable with life but eventually they die

        Ab                          Eb              G
And the brain I used to cultivate reveals my lovers were a lie

    Cm                           Eb                    Ab
But when inside my mind I find a way to replicate reality

                             Eb                  G
Through lucid dreaming I decimate limitations of actuality.

Cm                       Eb                   Ab
Capacity's practically eternal, mortality's external

                              Eb                  G
No God, but I investigate the blasphemous worship of the nocturnal

  Cm                                Eb                               Ab
Internally existing without morality creates profanities without the travesty,

                              Eb            G                Cm
and compared to the apathy of realness, I reveal my own insanity

               Eb                       Ab
The majesty of fantasy protects me from tragedy

                      Eb                    G
Normalities affect trajectory your agony of rationality,

      Cm                             Eb
which thankfully penetrates with no avail to my unreality

        Ab                                   Eb      G
It's an elaborately designed, privately owned spiral galaxy

  Cm                     Eb
Financially I’m failing, naturally I'm decaying

Ab                              Eb                   G
Soon I’ll have no safe space to sleep if these bills still need paying

Cm                            Eb
Displaying cravings with open eyes for something mind-expanding

    Ab                            Eb             G
For when I drift away I see the totality of understanding
