G (2) Em (2)
It's watching you close

You can fight it, both arms swinging

Or pay up to the echoes of 'okay'

Paralyzed by conscience
D (3) Em (2) C (2) G (2) Em (2)
Looking for an opening, Apathy as your vocal cords cut out

D (3) C (4)
how's the temperature? Too busy with the finer points
G (2) Em (2)
Of each struggle we're after

It flows on the bottom
