Fm  Cm       D#
how lonely I find
     Ab5  A#5 C5 Fm
will tend to my mind
Cm        Ab    C
along this mossy trail
    Fm  Cm       D#
and how coyly it hides
    Ab5   A#5 C5 Fm
the truth about how
   Cm    Ab      C
it is we can ask how

G#          A#m
crowds jump to their deaths
C#                       G#    D#
from the bridges I drive by tonight
G#                   A#m
they miss out on it all
                            C#
the whole gist that as they fall
                            G#
you're not expected to know why
            D#
it's such a short time
D#
and there are stanzas never meant to rhyme

Fm  Cm       D#
far better I find
  Ab5 A#5   C5 Fm     Cm
it is when we try to spend
Ab      C
the ??? ????
Fm   Cm      D#
with no real rationale
   Ab5  A#5  C5 Fm         Cm
we step out of bounds and think
      Ab       C
and escape the lies

    G#
and we've marched,
A#m          C#
so long but we've much farther
           G#      D#
than we've gone to go
    G#               A#m
and we'll make a new ship
                   C#
cristen it for the trip
                      G#        D#
with a toddler at the helm this time
D#
and there are things we never will define
