Bm
All my life,
G A
I've been fighting a war
Bm G A
I can't talk to you or your friends
Bm
It's not only you,
G A Bm
My heart jumps around when I'm eluded to
G A
This will not do
Bm G A
Cause I was raised up to be admired,
Bm
to be noticed
G A
But when you're withdrawn,
Bm
it's the closest thing
G A Bm
To a someone who lies around you
G A
This will not do
Bm – Bm - G - A

Bm
I'm thinking glory,
G A
Lick my lips toss my hair
Bm
And send a smile over
G A
And the story brand new
Bm
I can take it from here,
G A Bm G A
I'll find my own bravado
Chorus x2
D
It's a switch flipped
It's a pill tipped back
Em
It's a moon eclipsed, oh
Bm A
And I can tell that, when the lights come on I'll be ready for this
D
It's in your bloodstream
Em
A collision of atoms that happens before your eyes
Bm A
It's a marathon run or a (inaudible) without making a sound
D
I was frightened of every little thing
Em Bm
that I thought was out to get me down
A
To trip me up, and laugh at me,
D
But I learned not to hold the quiet of the room
Em Bm
And the one around to find me out
I want the applause, the approval, the things that make me go, oh
