[Verse 1]
G#m                                        E
I see the starlight through the clouds

Why won't anybody listen to me?

Bipolar pride, swim in the tide
B                                                             F#
Keep your deadhead above and your chin up
G#m                         E
You're gonna have a pretty hard time
B                         F#
Without drugs, without love

[Chorus 1]
E                            B
Total submission, I've seen a vision
E                                    B
Everyone's screaming, I've been daydreaming
E                            B
Sorry I'm fishing without permission
G#m                                       C#
Tell her I'm missing in a serpentine prison

[Verse 2]
G#m                                     E
Don't try to connect the dots anymore
B                                              F#
Let them go, they're gonna do it on their own
G#m                              E
Tell me that I'm not in this alone

And I, I'm so sorry, I don't know why I'm slow
G#m                               E
I feel like an impersonation of you
B                                  F#
Or am I doing another version of you doing me?
G#m                         E
Nobody's ever really thinking about us
B                                          F#
Half as much as we want them to be

[Chorus 2]
E                             B
Total frustration, deterioration
E                      B
Nationalism, another moon mission
E                           B
Total submission, I've seen a vision
G#m                     C#
Call electrician, serpentine prison

[Chorus 3]
E                   B
Whatever it is I try not to listen
E                             B
Cold cynicism and blind nihilism
E                            B
I need a vacation from intoxication
G#m                       C#
Tell her I'm missing in a serpentine prison

[Verse 3]
G#m                             E
I've been picking my kid up from school
B                                F#
Smelling like girl scout cookies and drool
G#m                         E
I still crawl up to you every night
B                           F#
Do not forgive me, I'm a reptile
G#m                            E
You say I'm a lot, I'm hard to take
B                              F#
I think you're just drinking the water
G#m                          E
I walk into walls and I lay awake
B                              F#
I don't want to give it to my daughter

[Kembali ke Chorus 1, 2 dan 3]

Everyone's screaming, I've been daydreaming
E                              B
Sorry I'm fishing without permission
G#m                                        C#
Tell her I'm missing in a serpentine prison
