Tonight I bury Old William without remorse
E5 C#5 F#5 A5
Because Hell sleeps around and Heaven wants a divorce
E5 C#5 F#5 Em
Tonight I burn my bookshelf to be free
E5 C#5 F#5 A5
Because even a rebel tradition is slavery
E5 F#5 C#5 A5
Tonight I bake my madness a birthday cake
E5 F#5 C#5 A5
Because even the insomniacs aren't awake
E5 F#5 C#5 A5
Tonight I burn my home while they ??? ??? ???
E5 F#5 C#5 A5
So tomorrow I can live like I died yesterday,
E5 C#5 F#5
Em
Live like I died yesterday

E5 C#5 F#5 Em
Today a stampede killed Superman
E5 C#5 F#5 A5
And Apollo and Dionysus both got hanged
E5 C#5 F#5 Em
Today the revolution laughed and spit in my face
E5 C#5 F#5 A5
But all-expenses-paid Dada will take its place
E5(mute/pause) C#5 A5
Today the dropouts were smarter than the PhDs
E5 F#5 C#5 A5
As they took off with everyone's car without the keys
E5 F#5 C#5 A5
Today I bled failure all the way up to the sky
E5 F#5 C#5 A5
And I grinned hopelessly as I sit down to die,
E5 C#5 F#5
Em E5
As I sit down to die
