Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I remember giving up the gory details

And it left me tongue-tied (such and elementary sickness)

 Now I don't want to think and I don't want to feel

 I wasn't aware this was part of the deal

When I put my finger on a greater expectation

But just my luck, I lack the patience of a statesman

 And all of my language will fail to convey

 That I'm terribly twisted around what I say

 And the message that I threw away

 I don't have it now

 I don't have it now

 I don't have it now

 I don't have it now

So I keep hiding and it only grows to hurt me

But time is wasting and I'm watching it desert me

I'm digging a hole and I'm making it deep

And I'm starting to question the hours I keep

And the answer that I put to sleep

I don't have it now

I don't have it now

I don't have it now

I don't have it now

And so I'm writing with the hope that someone's reading

For all too likely runs the risk of me repeating

But I don't have the guts to prevent the decay

And I'm terribly twisted around what I say

And the courage that I threw away

I don't have it now

I don't have it now

I don't have it now

I don't have it now

 I don't have it now

 I don't have it now

 I don't have it now

 I don't have it now
