G#
It's so easy to set off
The molecules and the caplets
They all have something against me
Nothing I do makes me feel different

C#                                         A#m
This one's like your sister's best friends in
                      Fm
a bath calling you to join them
      F#
Can't avoid them
C#                                      A#m
This one's like your mother's arms when she was
                            Fm
young and sunburned in the '80s
           F#
It lasts forever

The more level they have me
The more I cannot stand me
I have helpless friendships
And bad taste in liquids

This one's like the wilderness
Without the world, I'm gonna miss those long nights
With the windows open
I keep re-readin' the same lines
Always up at 5am every mornin'
Like a baby

Chorus:
               C#  A#m  G#  Fm F#
It's just the lights coming on
              C#   A#m  G#  Fm F#
It's just the lights coming on

F#     A#m   D#m   G#
I have no positions
F#           A#m     D#m  G#
No point of view or vision
F#         A#m              D#m      G#
I'm just trying to stay in touch with
     F#               A#m       D#m  G#
anything I'm still in touch with

The sky is getting white
I can't find a lighter anywhere, I'm goin' crazy
But I'm not crazy
Put your heels against the wall
I swear you got a little bit taller since I saw you
I'll still destroy you

Chorus:
It's just the lights comin' on
It's just the lights comin' on
