We wakeup different, rifle through our dreams (Riff 1)
Another placid day, ripples at the seams (Riff 2 w/ fill 3)
Do you think I bow out cause I think you're right? (Fig. 4)
Or cause I don't wanna fight? (Fig. 4)

So tangle-minded then so becalmed (Riff 1)
It's all so subway-grim and then it's gone (Riff 2 w/ fill 3)

Or cause I don't wanna fight? (Fig. 4)

We get so weary taking fish off hooks (Riff 1)
It's not as effortless as it may look (Riff 2 w/ fill 6)

Or cause I don't wanna fight? (Fig. 4)
(Riff 2 w/ fill 5)

We lay down seething, smell our pillows burn (Riff 1)
And drift off to the place where you'd think we'd learn (Riff 2/ fill 7)

Or cause I don't wanna fight? (Fig. 4)
