Intro riff

These are the thoughts - that go through my head

In my backyard on a - sunday afternoon

When I have the house - to myself and I am not

Expending all that energy on fighting

Bm G D 
With my boyfriend
D ( intro riff )
Is he the one - that I will marry

And why is it so hard - to be objective about

Myself why do I feel - cellularly alone

Am I supposed to live - in this crazy city


Bm G D
Can blindly continued fear-induced regurtitated life-denying tradition

Be overcome
D ( intro riff )
Where does the mo - ney go that I send

To those in need, if we - have so much why do some people have 

Nothing still why do - I feel frantic when I 
Bm
First wake up in the morning - why do you say you are spiritual
G D
Yet you treat people like shit
D
How can you say - you're close to God

And yet you talk behind - my back as though I'm not

A part of you, why do - I say "I'm fine" when it's

The less you will listen - why do I care whether you like me 

Or not why's it so hard - for me to be angry
Bm
Why is it such work to stay - conscious and so easy to get stuck
G D
And not the other way around
D ( intro riff )
Will I ever move - back to Canada can 

I be with a lover - with whom I am a student

And a master, oh why am I - encouraged to shut my 

Mouth when it gets too close - to home, why cannot I
Bm G D
Live in the moment
