Verse 1:
What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies
In the sun
In the sun I feed as one
In the sun
In the sun
married
buried
Verse 2:
I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything is my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqur scafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of her enemy
Ending:
Oh no is all we are (?)
All in all we all are

Hmmm... take everything on the 4th and 5th strings and move
it up 2 frets, and you'e got the way _I_ play it. Doesnt'
mean anything, buy hey, it's my two cents. Try it... I really
think the open low Db and an 11th fret A on the next string sound
right together.
