Verse 1
EThey Could Prescribe You Any Illness
You Like, If You DeAfine The Terms Of
Your EAilment

You Could Sing A Pretty Malady Like A
Black Canary,  But A ACrow Don't Know
The Smell OBf Carbon Monoxide
EHow Many Years Have You Been On That
Couch? They Coulda AQuilt'd You In The
 Throws By ENow

You Draw A Line In The Sand, Where It
D/EEnds And You A/EBegin, But AThe Tide Rolls
 In, So Who BKnows? Oh, Well

Pre-Chorus
And A ALittle IdentitBy Never Hurt
Nobody
Oh But G#mLately You've Been Focusing Too
C#mMuch On Yourself
So F#m7How Many Milligrams Of You Are Still
 Left In BThere?

Chorus
‘Cause ABack In My Day We Didn'Bt Need No
 Feel-Good G#mPills, And No PsychC#miatrists
No We Just ADraC#m/G#nk Our-F#mSelvesA/E To F#dim Death
N.c
And Goddammit We Liked It

Verse 2
EWho Makes The Call, What's A Symptom
What’s A Flaw? Could It Be ABoth?
Well I Suppose That’s An EAnswer

Would You Give Up Your Humanity For
Just A Touch Of Sanity? ‘Cause AGod
Knows, It’s Not Like It'sB Cancer!
And Good ENews To The Purist, They
Discovered A Cure For The ASymptoms
 Of Being EAlive
It’s A Painless Procedure With A DLow
Rate Of Failure, But AVery Few
PatieBnts Survive!

Pre-Chorus

Worried That YC#mou're Losing Yourself

Outro
BIs Your Identity AtE Stake? Does Aspirin
 Kill You With The C#mPain?

You're Not Your Thoughts, You're Not
Your F#Brain, You're Just That
Character You've Made
BUp In Your Head, Down In YourE Heart
What Seem Like Separate Body C#mParts
Just Come Together To BeF#lieve They're
You, And Not Just Chemistry
BIt’s Not The Way You WereE Raised, Not
What The Advertisements C#mSay
Not What You Pay For, What You F#Pray
For, What You Want Or What You Say
BAnd I See Your Tendency ToG#m Redefine
Disease By What You ENeed
And I'm Afraid I Can't PreF#scribe The
Diagnosis That You Seek
BBut Something Tells Me That YouG#m Need
Forgive Me Now If I MisEspeak
But Something Tells Me That You F#Like
Yeah Something Tells Me—
EThat You PrF#efer

To Be Sitting There Flipping Through
Those Old Issues Of People
N.c
Well That's Our Time, See You Same Time
