Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

lie detector's on the blink, so comfort me with doublethink

and let's put wallpaper up between our ears

 over the years as my attention span disappears

 blink and it's gone

 a moment has never seemed so long

Chorus 1

i'm still dreaming of clock towers and synchronicity

 you call it coincidence -- i call it common sense

the truth will set you free if you've been slave to a lie

Chorus 2

i'm waiting for a chance to make it known

 i'm gonna be the one who keeps you from being alone

 i call, i call, i call, i call

no one ever

Verse 2

used to be political, but now our state is critical

 so let's put wallpaper up between our ears

 once it was clear maybe i lost it over the years

 maybe it's here buried beneath the dirt of fear

 maybe it's still here (3x)

Chorus 1

ext.):

i'm still dreaming of clock towers and synchronicity

 you call it coincidence -- i call it common sense

the truth will set you free if you've been slave to a lie

i'm still dreaming in sound waves that oscillate and amplify

the feeling of nothingness, oh what a subtle bliss

the truth will set you free if you've been slave to a lie

Chorus 2

i'm waiting for a chance to make it known

 i'm gonna be the one who keeps you from being alone

 i've seen it all before, but i still can't tell

 so you better ask somebody who knows

i'm waiting for a chance to make it known

 i'm gonna be the one who keeps you from being alone

 i've seen it all before, but i still can't tell

 so you better ask somebody who knows

 so you better ask somebody who knows

 so you better ask somebody who knows
