First Draft: Any improvements or comments, please e-mail me — I’ve concentrated mostly on the chords here. Sounds great with killer overdrive — sounds like she has some kinda vocoder effect on her voice on the album version.

Verse
Does it have to be a life full of dread
Wanna chase you round the table, wanna touch your head
Does it have to be a life full of dread
Wanna chase you round the table, wanna touch your head

On suffering when you taste so good
I can’t believe that the axis turns
On suffering while my head burns

You’re the only story that I never told
You’re my dirty little secret, wanna keep you so
Come on out come on over, help me forget
Keep the walls from falling on me, tumbling in
