Strum
D-DU-UDU
i'm  trying to put this thing to bed
 i drugged it in it's sleep
 there isn't many memories  i'm comfortable to  keep
 this ball keeps rolling on
 it's heading for the streets
 i keep expecting you to send  for me
 the invitation never comes
 each time i turn around
 there's nothing there at all
 so tell me why i feel  like i'm up against a wall
 but maybe it's a false  alarm
 and every answer sounds  the same
   or
 just colours bleesing into  one
 that hasn't got a name
 maybe i can't see
 maybe it's just  me
 REPEAT CHORDS FROM VERSE ONE:
 now the curtains coming up
 the audience is still
 i'm struggling to cater for the space i'm meant to fill
 and distance doesn't care
 no distance doesn't care
 REPEAT CHORUS:
 each time i turn around
 there's nothing there at all
 so tell me why i feel like i'm up against a wall
 maybe it's a false alarm
 every answer sounds the same
 just colours bleeding into one
 that hasn't got a name
 maybe i cna't see
 maybe it's just me
 REPEAT CHORUS ONE:
 i'm trying to put this thing to bed
 i drugged it in it's sleep
 remeber what you said
 are you comfortable to keep it
 keep it
