1.   They painted up your secrets
G                C           G                - C
    with the lies they told to you.
G                C             G       C
    And the least they ever gave you
G                  C          G         C
    was the most you ever knew.
 
          Em            D                 C            - G
And I wonder where these dreams go
                Em            D           C       - G
when the world gets in your way.
                  Em        D             C             - G
What's the point in all this screaming ?
       G                             C    - G  
No one's listening anyway.

2.    Your voice is small and fading
G              C         G       C
    as you hide in here alone.
G                    C       G               C
    And your mother loves your father
G                        C         G          C
     cause she's got nowhere to go.
 
               Em             D                  C             - G
And she wonders where these dreams go
                   Em         D         C      - G
 cause the world got in her way.
                   Em       D       C        - G
What's the point in ever trying ?
                    G                  C    - G
Nothing's changing anyway.

3.   They press their lips against you,
G               C           G             C
    and you love the lies they say.
G            C          G          C
    And I tried so hard to reach you,
G                  C        G      C
    but you're falling any way
 
                Em            D         C             - G
And you know I see right through you
                 Em           D           C     - G
when the world gets in your way.
                   Em       D             C             - G
What's the point in all this screaming ?
                  G                   C   - G
You're not listening anyway.
