 Am                         G                    D 
Maybe I'd get less stressed if I was tested less like all of these debutantes 
Am                        G                        D

Don't ask if I'm happy, you know that I'm not, but at best I can say I'm not sad 
       C                   G                      D/F#

Except for the stage which I also call home when I'm not 
Am                  G                       D 
Servin' up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad

Am                            G                  D 
Calling from beyond the grave, I just wanna say, "Hi, Dad"

There's a new revolution, a loud evolution that I saw 
Am                    G                   D 
Born of confusion and quiet collusion of which mostly I've known

Monsters still under my bed that I could never fight off

A gatekeeper carelessly dropping the keys on my nights off
