[Verse 3]
Bbm9 There is a drug Dbm9 Gm9 Inside my head Abm9 Bbm9 I just have to turn it on Dbm9 Gm9 Fall into the screen and I'm gone Abm9 Bbm9 And no one talks about this at all Dbm9 Oh, people laugh Gm9 Oh, the hilarious scenarios Abm9 The pizza man, the pool guy Bbm9 We laugh it away Dbm9 Gm9 But that's what's so insidious Abm9 Bbm9 Dbm9 Gm9 This monster hides subliminally corroding our lives Abm9 And I know it's complicated! I've read all the articles! Bbm9 Dbm9 I'm not some prude religious conservative Gm9 Abm9 I support sex workers and sex positivity Gm9 N.C. Let me take just a moment to signal my virtue N.C. Gm9 By telling you all my pornography preferences Fm9 You know I actually used to like porn? Em9 I loved the ones with a story, the female directed stuff Gm9 Fm9 Lesbian, step-sibling, massage Em9 Perfect European villas, good lighting and lingerie Gm9 Fm9 Oh I love it when they make love Em9 And you're like, oh, that- that- that- that is the sex that I want! Gm9 It can be so beautiful Fm9 Em9 When two performers lock eyes Em9 And you can see the joy and communion Gm9 Fm9 The ancient divine union of sex Em9 We all know that's what sex is, right? Em9 It's fucking God Gm9 Fm9 But porn is solitaire, scentless and safe Em9 We have sucked the sacrament out of sex Bbm9 Sex should be a rite of passage Dbm9 Gm9 But our kids are watching fisting, pissing, hitting, pounding Abm9 And I don't wanna shame anyone's kink Bbm9 (don't wanna shame no one's kink!) Bbm9 But there's a level of psychological complexity there Dbm9 (psychological complexity) Gm9 Abm9 ...Much less 11, or 9! It's catastrophic! Bbm9 Dbm9 There is an erectile dysfunction epidemic (Erectile dysfunction!) Gm9 That nobody talks about! Abm9 You know at least drug addicts and alcoholics are kind of cool Abm9 Musicians and artists- their redemption stories are honored Bbm9 Dbm9 Someone has an AA chip, it's like fuck yes, good on you bro! Gm9 But porn? No way man! Abm9 No one fucking honors that! Bbm9 Dbm9 And the porn dudes are always the ones that become such shits Gm9 Abm9 The petty whiplash cruelty of a man-child scorned
N.C.
(Yeah I wouldn't have fucked you anyway)
N.C.
(You're about a five, ugly and fat with shit hair)
N.C.
(A repressed and unfeminine lump, unfuckable cunt)
N.C.
(You need to be gagged)
N.C.
You need to be gagged!
N.C.
But then it's like...
N.C.
If I say something, am I pushing him somewhere darker? Radicalizing him?
N.C.
Like... is this guy the next fucking manifesto mass murderer?
N.C.
And so I take on that weight too
N.C.
There's no fucking equivalency here!
N.C.
There're these guys online, and they say that the world is an all-encompassing black pill
N.C.
That you have to constantly shove into the back corner of your mind
N.C.
There're these guys online and they- they say that we don't fuck
N.C.
'Cause we're low status, introvert, ugly, awkward, outcasts
N.C.
And the Chads and Stacys will never let us in
N.C.
The Chads and Stacys just laugh at us
N.C.
There're these guys online and they say it's us against them! Make your mark!
N.C.
And I feel the pull of that
[Chorus]
Ab Eb I feel my body stretch between two cliffs Bb One side is fantasy Cm The other reality Ab Eb I feel my fingers start to lose their grip Bb G7 And I can't hold on (I can't hold on) Ab Eb I could be so good at love (I feel my body stretched between two cliffs) Bb Cm I could be so good at love (one side is fantasy, the other reality) Ab Eb I could be so good at love (I feel my fingers start to lose their grip) Bb G7/Bb Ddim7 I could be so good at love (And I can't hold on)
[Outro]
Ab Eb I ask my mom, why do you keep going back there? Bb G7 Cm Every day working the slots, she's lost so much Ab Eb And then I keep doing things I know aren't good for me Bb But where am I supposed to meet people? Bdim7 Church? Fuck!
