Strum
D-DU-UDU
There's  a smog moon, in the amber sky, wavering and burning like a golden lie.
I  fell so far,  I didn't think I'd make  it back
We  are all made, as an afterthought,
 Destined to believe that we are what we are not
I'm  afraid,  but I don't need to tell you that
There's  a smog moon coming I can always feel it
The  cartoon trees cannot conceal it
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks  like it is white
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks  like
There's  a lost man, with a bitter soul, Only for a moment,
 Did life make him whole
And  while he was,  he thought he was invincible
There's  a smog moon coming I can always feel it
The  cartoon trees cannot conceal it
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks  like it is white
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks  like it is white
 :
They're  not your words,  but you're reciting  the lines
You  don't mean a thing,  but you exist  in their minds
How  does it feel,  when they have turned  out the lights?
'Cause  you know  they sooner would get rid of you,  than fight.
And  the dark night, has the strongest pull
 We both know that staying young, can take its toll
Are  you afraid  of finding out you're over  that
There's  a smog moon coming I can always feel it
The  cartoon trees cannot conceal it
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks  like it is white
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks  like it is white
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks  like it is white
When  it's high up in the sky,  it almost looks like
