Strum
D-DU-UDU
  There's  a life full, dangling  from string
  It's  slowly swaying over  my head now
  As  I jot down the words that will  never be  solved
  And  wait for my headache to  numb
  And the wind sounds as if the world's sighing
  And the moon's just a torn fingernail
  As the TV flickers in homes by the wall
  And I wait for my eyesight to fade
  So  I hope, So  I hope, So  I hope, it's so damn  slow
  So  I hope, So  I hope, So  I hope, it's so damn  slow
  Not pride, I choke on ambition
  And the old folks circle their graves
  And the young ones are busy destroying their heirs
  And the heirs are still just wasting away
  I sit and watch this screen for a message
  Some kind of sign that says we're ok
  But the screen stays blank till I turn the thing on
  And I wait for my conscience to break
  So...
  So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
  So I hope, So I hope, So I hope, it's so damn slow
  I hope you are learning to listen
  And I hope you are learning to stay
  And I hope you find what you are missing
  And I hope they're making your way
  I'm a headcase if I don't keep moving
  And my head hurts if I don't sit still
  It's an itch that I never stop scratching
  It's a hole that I'll never quite fill
  So...

 I'm a headcase if I don't keep moving
 And my head hurts if I don't sit still
 It's an itch that I never stop scratching
 It's a hole that I'll never quite fill

 So...
