 Fill the space between the intro and verse with more feedback,
 then repeat the pattern for the verse,
 with partially improvised natural harmonics on the 7th fret,
 and sing words that are noted with chords underneath this text.
 THERE IS AN INSTRUMENTAL SECTION BETWEEN VERSES,
 which is listed by its chords below,
 remember to play them somewhat aggressively throughout.
 Verse 2 is almost identical in structure to verse 1,
 again the 7th fret natural harmonics might be slightly altered.
 (INTRODUCTION LISTED ABOVE)
 (VERSE 1)
 Is it because  there's a little part  of you that wants to be  dead?
 Or is it because  your life feels empty  without some ritual?
 Or is it because  the rebellion against  the adults hasn't ended  yet?
 Well, the adults sell cigarettes,
 and you are young  and rich, for now.
 You have the ritual,  for free,
 you wake up  each day, don't  you?
 There's no excuse to start smoking!

 (VERSE 2)
 Where is the rebellion  in acting like a fuck-up,
 why not embrace  simple health?
 It is obvious  that there is work  to do: strong and deliberately.
 We are the ones,  we have to do  it, no more parents,  no more gods.
 Taking responsibility,
 living in  the world on our own.
 There's no punishment,
 only knowing what  to do, no excuses
 Do not wait, go.
  --
 Improve yourself right now.

Or is it [D]because the rebellion [Bm]against the adults hasn't [G]ended yet?

Well, the adults sell [F#m]cigarettes,

and you are [G]young and rich, for now.

You have the [F#m]ritual, for free,

you wake [G]up each day, [A]don't you?
