[C#m]Spending the rest of [B]our lives,
swimming in [A]circles, chasing our [E]own tails.
Compare [C#m]reflections of [B]our scales,
silver in [A]moonlight, iron by [E]daylight.

We forget who we [C#m]are in 15 [B]seconds time,
and after a [A]while a year has gone [E]by.

Always [C#m]hoping to catch our [B]own sparks,
in the blank eyes of [A]others,
who just return what was [E]offered.
And then we [C#m]can't see, though we focus [B]our eyes,
through our little [A]fishbowl, only our [E]watered-out egos

We choose to [E]accept [B]all the [C#m]same old songs,
choose to [E]accept [B]this ex[C#m]act same day,
the [E]same to[B]day as yester[C#m]day,
the [E]same old [B]things as every[C#m]day,
the [E]same to[B]day, [C#m] the [E]same old [B]thing. [C#m]
