I'm stuck self torturing

C#m          E
My meds are failing me

Internal clock in smithereens

C#m             G#
Can't fix this, I'm hopeless
[Chorus 1]

My eyes are stapled opened wide

A
As I lay down on my side

F#m                      G#
I am bouncing off these walls

Notice my hands begin to twitch

Me and the TV are enemies

Sickening static surrounds my mind

            E            F#m
I'm losing time and realizing that

       G#
After days of thought
[Pre-Chorus]
    A            F#m
I'm stuck self torturing

C#m           E
My meds are failing me

Internal clock in smithereens

I am bouncing off these walls
[Chorus 2]
C#m                      A
As I focus on the clock, time stands still but I can not

I should strap myself in bed

G#
I guess I'll sleep when I am dead
[Bridge]
C#m
Talk to myself,

E          F#m            G#
Lie in the darkness so content

A         
As the Sun begins to rise

B
I can barely shut my eyes

C#m                     E      
This crazed delirious mess

            F#m           G#
Laughing at everything I see

A
My sanity is spent

B
Just tell me where my time went
N.C. I'm losing it N.C. Attention: N.C. All insomniacs please raise your right hand N.C. And kindly repeat after me N.C. I guess I'll sleep when I am dead [Solo part] [Pre-Chorus]
         A               F#m
Cause I'm stuck self torturing

C#m            E
My meds are failing me

Can't fix this, I'm hopeless

I am bouncing off these walls
