First Verse



  A      C#m     A           C#m

  Why do I sense benevolence,



  A         C#m        A             C#m

  You stand tall at my great expense, 



  G                                         F#

  Thick words of gratitude, what a price to pay,



  G                                       F#

  Stuck in my throat, I sell every word I say.

 





Chorus (w/ fig 1)



  N.C.                  A

  But I don't want your charity,



C#m           A

  Twisting me round.



C#m                 A

  I don't want your charity,



Csus2

  Keeping me down.

Second Verse



  A        C#m        A           C#m

  Why does your world keep burying,



  A            C#m         A             C#m

  Gorging much deeper than it's ever been,



  G                                F#

  Rubbing still harder, salt on my heart,



  G                                       F#

  Licking my burns while I grovel in your dirt.

Bridge



  F#

  You pity me with your tasteless gestures,



                G

  Gratitude for kind,



      F#

  But your bludgeoned, intentioned objectives



                    G                         F#  

  Are screwing with my mind, screwing with my mind.
