[Intro]
G Em C Em x2
 
[Verse 1]
             G              Em
I’m setting pen to paper again,
                  C
Lost my sense of home,
                            Em
From the words that I’ve said,
         G                     Em
But the thoughts have begun to ferment
 
in my head,
      C
And content manifests,
          Em
Don’t feel good enough for them,
    G                       Em
so I try and transcend my ego,
 
But don’t we know?
C                Am
It will never work,
G                              Em
Maybe I’ll just descend to dirt,
               C                 Am
Flirt with becoming food for worms.
 
 
[Chorus] One Strum For This Chorus
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
C
My mind is playing an awful trick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
I’m running from my emptiness,
C
My brain is tired, my stomachs sick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic.
 
[Verse 2]
G                              Em
Why has constructing sentences become
 
like pulling teeth?
C
wiping dental records clean,
Em
Is this carcass even me?
   G               Em
Is this catharsis therapeutic plunge to
 
darkness?
        C                    Em
Or elaborating, upon my mediocrity,
                 G              Em
Maybe this is the result of me finally
 
accepting,
             C
That I’ll be alone forever,
        Em
That I deserve forgetting.
                G
It’s a pointless endeavour, and maybe It’s
      Em
upsetting,
                      C
But I’ve never felt more comfortable with
              Em
the concept of things ending.
 
[Chorus]
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
C
My mind does play an awful trick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
I’m running from my emptiness,
C
My brain is tired, my stomachs sick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic.
 
[Interlude]
G Em C Em x2
 
[Bridge]
G                      Em
Maybe this writer's block that I’ve been
                    C
perceiving is to stop me diving deeply
           Em
into my internal being,
G                     Em
Falling into darkness below my surface
 
tension,
C
Emotional suppression,
        Em
My coping mechanism.
       G
Cause all my friends are dying,
       Em
Some faster than the others,
     C
Lungs filling up with fluid,
     Em
Face placed under the covers.
          G
Cause all my friends are dying,
      Em
Some faster than the others,
           C                       Em
I’m trying To distract myself from the fears
 
that I’ve discovered.
 
[Chorus]
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
C
My mind is playing an awful trick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
I’m running from my emptiness,
C
My brain is tired, my stomachs sick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
C
My mind is playing an awful trick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic,
G
Would anyone listen to this?
Em
I’m running from my emptiness,
C
My brain is tired, my stomachs sick,
Em
The ramblings of a lunatic.
