Im coming up for air, i could be anywhere
It makes no difference when you live in a puddle

When my hearts in my mouth, and not on my sleeve
G2 D A
Better run little rabbit, back to your hole in the ground
F# G2 F# E
Its a long way down its a long way down
Verse 2:
The people look so small, sliding off the wall
Getting dizzy as the fall in the gutter
I watch the seagull swooping past the steeple
Crying for his dinner as he shits on the sinners
