[Intro]
A Bm9 D/C# Bm7
A Bm9 D/C#
Bm7
[Verse 1]
A Bm9 D/C#
I lost the passion that comes with living
Bm7 A Bm9 D/C#
Since I started university
Bm7 A Bm9 D/C#
I took a geography course to learn the datelines
Bm7
And maybe use a sextant
A Bm9 D/C#
But now I just press facsimiles
Bm7 A Bm9 D/C#
And you're exactly who you wanted to be
Bm7
That's what you said
A Bm9 D/C# Bm7
'Cause you wanna watch TV and sleep all day and lay in bed, but
A Bm9 D/C# Bm7
You're forgetting that I've got to go to work and eat my food
A Bm9 D/C#
And pay my rent and reproduce and feed those kids
Bm7
And maybe use a sextant
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m F#m(maj7) A Aadd#11
I don't miss you
Dmaj7 Gm/D
I miss the thought of what we were
[Chorus]
A Bm F#m F#m(maj7) A
'Cause this is the part where I shut up and let you infest my brain
Bm F#m F#m(maj7) A
Wrap your arms around my cortex, dig you in and let you drain
Bm F#m F#m(maj7) A
You'll never get rid of me, oh, I'm like a fucking disease
Bm
I'll make a home in your gut
F#m F#m(maj7) A
'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep
[Bridge]
Bm9 D/C# Bm7
[Verse 2]
A Bm9 D/C#
And what was your thought when you realised
Bm7 A
You'll never feel naive love again?
Bm9 D/C#
Was it pain or was it sickness?
Bm7 A
Were you proud of who you'd been?
Bm9 D/C#
The shyness waiting for his phone calls
Bm7 A
Replaced by apathy and dating apps
Bm9 D/C#
You held his hands, it felt like flying
Bm7 A
Now he's just another man
Bm9 D/C#
You'd rather he was inside than beside you
Bm7 A Bm9 D/C#
But he's talking marriage and a future
Bm7 A Bm9 D/C#
He's picking a lock he doesn't go into
Bm7 A Bm9 D/C#
He's knife in a wound, he's a suture
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m F#m(maj7) A Aadd#11
I don't miss you
Dmaj7 Gm/D
I miss the thought of what we were
[Chorus]
A Bm F#m F#m(maj7) A
'Cause this is the part where I shut up and let you infest my brain
Bm F#m F#m(maj7) A
Wrap your arms around my cortex, dig you in and let you drain
Bm F#m F#m(maj7) A
You'll never get rid of me, oh, I'm like a fucking disease
Bm
I'll make a home in your gut
F#m F#m(maj7) A
'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep
[Outro]
Bm F#m
It's okay
F#m(maj7) A
Anything to make me feel less numb
Bm F#m
It's okay
F#m(maj7) A
Anything to make me feel less numb
Bm F#m
It's okay
F#m(maj7) A
Anything to make me feel less numb
Bm F#m F#m(maj7)
It's okay
A Bm F#m
Eat my rent and eat my food
F#m(maj7) A
And eat my dues and eat those kids
Bm F#m
It's okay
And maybe use a sextant
I lost the passion that comes with living
Since I started university
I took a geography course to learn the datelines
And maybe use a sextant
But now I just press facsimiles
And you're exactly who you wanted to be
Well, that's what you said
'Cause you wanna watch TV and sleep all day and lay in bed, but
You're forgetting that I've got to go to work and eat my food
And pay my rent and reproduce then feed those kids
And maybe use a sextant
I don't miss you
I miss the thought of what we were
'Cause this is the part where I shut up
And let you infest my brain
Wrap your arms around my cortex
Dig you in and let you drain
You'll never get rid of me
Oh, I'm like a fucking disease
I'll make a home in your gut
'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep
And what was your thought when you realised
You'll never feel naïve love again?
Was it pain or was it sickness?
Were you proud of who you'd been?
The shyness waiting for his phone calls
Replaced by apathy and dating apps
You held his hands, it felt like flying
Now he's just another man
You'd rather he was inside than beside you
But he's talking marriage and a future
He's picking a lock he doesn't go into
His knife in a wound, he's a suture
I don't miss you
I miss the thought of what we were
'Cause this is the part where I shut up
And let you infest my brain
Wrap your arms around my cortex
Dig you in and let you drain
You'll never get rid of me
Oh, I'm like a fucking disease
I'll make a home in your gut
'Cause it's somewhere warm to sleep
And it's okay, anything to make me feel less numb
It's okay, anything to make me feel less numb
It's okay, anything to make me feel less numb
It's okay, it's okay
it's okay
And maybe use a sextant
