B
It's an empty shell I live in
     F#
The doors are always closed
        E
And I spend my weeks
          G#m               F#
Losing my head, resting my bones

And they say that nothing's given
So I guess I'll get nothing at all
And I'll accept defeat
'Cause you can't swing
When the fight's lost
You know

E
Can't see the grass getting greener 'cause
Out here ain't nothing but blue in your eyes
B
Blood red, the heart helps a little
    F#
But everyone you meet's just passing through
E
White lies take all of the color from you
Most nights you don't sleep at all
          B
In your blackout blinds you hide
                     F#
Is there any wonder no one ever
really tries to call?
And you say

Chorus:
G#m       E                   B     F#
Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal
G#m      E                    B
Ooh, I climb so high just to feel
                    F#
the fall and let it go
   G#m     E            B    F#
So look me in the eyes, am I someone else?
G#m       E                   B         F#
Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal an animal
an animal

And I always have a vision
But I always watch it go
And then I feel too weak
And it's too much, and it's too close

Can't see the grass getting greener 'cause
Out here ain't nothing but blue
And your eyes blood red, the high helps a little
But everyone you meet's just passing through
White lies take all of the color from you
Most nights you don't sleep at all
And you black out blind you hide
Is there any wonder no one ever
really tries to call?
You say

Chorus

Can't see the grass getting greener 'cause
Out here ain't nothing but blue
And your eyes blood red, the high helps a little
But everyone you meet's just passing through
You say
