[Verse 1]
 
Am                                Dm
Mars, the God of War is watching over me
    Em7                           F
So passively, from the twinkling scenery
Am                                Dm
Mars, the God of War, pretending so serene
               G7
He's keeping his hands clean
              Em7         E7      F
While I make war on this war machine

A careful chosen word, designed to hurt
    Fm                Am           C
But will it stir some new philosophy?
   G             Fm
Retreat or be defeated, baby
 
 
 [Chorus]
 
C            Fm                Am
 I wish that I could wish you well
             Fm                C
 I wish that I could wish you well
               Fm                  Am
 Instead I'm hitting my head and hitting backspace on
 Fm
 “Can't you just go to hell?”

 [Verse 2]
 
 Am                            Dm
 All of your recall requires optometry (Requires optometry)
             Em
 'Cause what I want to see ('Cause what I want to see)
                  F
 Is you seeing clearly
 Am                              Dm
 Tenures of regret and my good memory (My good memory)
               G7
 Spent under tyranny (Spent under tyranny)
            Em7       E7     F
 It ends tonight in quiet steam
 
 Be careful where you reach for sympathy
        Fm                Am            C
 'Cause it won’t be where you got it before
    G                 Fm
 Retreat, rinse and repeat it, baby
 
 
 [Chorus]
 
C            Fm                Am
 I wish that I could wish you well
             Fm                C
 I wish that I could wish you well
               Fm                  Am
 Instead I'm hitting my head and hitting backspace on
 Fm                            Fm
 “Can't you just go to hell?” (Can't you just go to hell?)
 
 
 [Bridge]
 
 G                  Am
 Position changing, never engaging
 Bb
 It's not just the dawn that's breaking
 F
 (It's not just the dawn that's breaking)
     G                    Am
 And I'll keep hating the red star fading
     Bb
 And it's not just the dawn that's breaking
 Bb
 It's not just the dawn that breaks
 
 
 [Chorus]
