[F#]
[C#m] [F#]
[C#m] [F#]
I wanna be original, I wanna be surrounded by art
But everything is digital, the formulas are falling apart
The riot in the streets keeps coming, I don't have enough money to shop
We were burning the flame, just the universal trust we can build
[A] But out here on the [E] borderline, [A] you gotta hold [F#] it together
[E] [A] You've been deprived of dedication, [E] [A] you've been condemned [F#] by your dreams
[E] [F#] [A]
[Em] [F#] You've been [E] as violent as you say,
[F#m] can you pull the hook [E] from your [F#] mouth?
You're the reason for the hate, you've been running on down
We're [C#] [F#] divided in cities, just as the diary of rock and beat plays
[F#m] This is no beat at a speed, this isn't music, it's [F#] a pyramid scheme
[A]
[Em] But out here on the borderline, you [A] gotta hold [F#] it together
[E] [F#] [A] You've been deprived of dedication, [E] [A] you've been condemned [F#m] by your dreams
[Em] [F#] [A] [Em] [A] But out here on [E] the borderline, we [A] feel for one life forever
[E] [F#] [E] We [A] don't pretend that this is a scene, [E] so [A] toss it [F#] into a [E] sea
[F#] I [E] [F#]
[E] [F#] [E] [F#] [E]
[F#] [E] [F#] can't get down, I'm [E] melting [F#] down, I'm getting [E] [F#] down, now I'm [E] a brave [F#] person
[E] You [A]
gotta know what's [E] wrong, [A] I can't seem [F#] to make it change
Like we're just dead, now we're born, reminiscent
We used to laugh at our misery, spoon [F#m]-fed our desire
[F#] But we're lost on fire, now we won't remain
A lot of days I've been sitting proud, and I'm not the same, [E] burning [F#] with rage
[A] But out here [E] on the borderline, you [A] gotta hold [F#m] it together
[Em] [F#] [A] You've been deprived of dedication, [E] [A] you've been condemned [F#] by your [Em] dreams
[F#] [Em] [A] But out here [E] on the borderline, we [A] feel for one [F#m] life forever
We don't [A]
pretend that this is a scene, [E] so [A] toss it into [F#] a sea
