     Gm
Have you ever wondered, well I have.

               Abadd9
About how when I say, say red, for example.

                  Gm
There's no way of knowing if red means the same thing in your head

   Abadd9                                      Adim
As red means in my head. When someone says red?    I'm not sure

                          A
But I wonder if inside my head

                                             Bb
I'm not just a bit different from some of my friends

                   G7/B                 C
These answers that come into my mind un-bidden

                 A/C#                Dm
These stories de-livered to me fully written!

                                                Ebmaj7
And when everyone shouts like they seem to like shouting,

                                   Dm
The noise in my head is incredibly loud!

                                           Ebmaj7
And I just wish they'd stop, my Dad and my Mum.

                                          Em7
And the telly and stories would stop just for once!

                                           Em
And I'm sorry, I'm not quite explaining it right.

                                               Db
But this noise becomes anger, and the anger is light

                                            Fm/C
And its burning inside me would usually fade,     but it isn't today!

                                  Db
And the heat and the shouting, and my heart is pounding, and my

         Eb
         Rall.                 Rit.
Eyes are burning, and suddenly everything, everything is...
F      Am                              F
Semplice (meno mosso)
Quiet. Like silence, but not really silent.
Gm7                       Bb
  Just that still sort of quiet; like the sound of a page

Dm       Am7         Bbmaj7      Dm         Am7         Bb
  Be-ing turned in a book,  or a pause in a walk in the woods.

                  Bbmaj7                  Bbm(maj7)
                  Poco Piu Mosso
And though the people around me, their mouths are still moving.
A7                    Eb      Gm                     C
   The words they are forming,   cannot reach me any-more!

          F
And it is quiet.

         C/E
And I am warm.

          Dm  Am7  Bb
Like I've sailed

                            Dm  Dm/C  Bb     Dm  C  Bb  F
        Accel.
Into the eye of the storm.
