Intro: Em A

Em
And half the time I want to go home
A
And half the time I want to go home

Em
For the past year I've been living in a town
That gets a lot of tourists in the summer months
     A
They come and they stay for a couple days
But hey, I'm living here every day

        Em
I don't need the complications
I'm just in it for the beating
It's almost a point of pride
They say that it doesn't happen that often
A
Pure sadism
Pure sadism
Pure sadism
Pure sadism

Em
I find it harder to speak
A
When someone else is listening

       Em
In the back of a medicine cabinet
You can find your life story
And your future in the side effects
A
I haven't played guitar in months
My strings all broke

           Em
They got a portrait by Van Gogh
On the Wikipedia page
For clinical depression
Well, it helps to describe it
         A
Yeah, it helps to describe it
Yeah, it helps to describe it
Yeah, it helps to describe it
Yeah, it helps to describe it...

Em
I don't have the strength
(I don't have the time)
I poured myself a drink
(I told myself a lie)
A
You know I've worried
(You know I've tried)
Don't you know I'm not strong?
(Don't you know I'm not kind?)
Em
Someone's getting lucky
(Someone's calling the cops)
Someone take me away
(Someone make it all stop)
A
I had a bright tomorrow
(I spent it all today)
Now I am silent at last
Now I have nothing to say

Em
If I'm being honest with myself
A
I haven't been honest with myself

           Em
It must be hard to speak in a foreign language

Em
I find it easier to sleep
                                A
(And half the time I want to go home)
When I'm not holding the noise machine
                                Em
(And half the time I want to go home)
                            N.C.
And half the time, I'm like THIS -
They'll send in Matt. CAPtain Trash!
