A#m C# If you gave me a fresh carnation G# B I would only crush itʼs tender petals A#m C# With me youʼll have no escape G# B And at the same time thereʼll be nowhere to settle - G#m E I trample down all life in my wake D# Cm I eat it up and take the cake F7 A#m I just avert my eyes to the pain D# A#m Of someoneʼs loss helping my gain If you gave me a dream for my pocket Youʼd be plugging in the wrong socket With me thereʼs no room for the future With me thereʼs no room with a view at all - G#m E I am out of season all year ʼround D# Cm Hear machinery roar to my empty sound F7 A#m Touch my heart and feel winter D# C#m Hold my hand and be doomed forever - If you gave me a fresh carnation I would only crush itʼs tender petals With me youʼll have now escape And at the same time thereʼll be nowhere to settle. G#m E And if youʼre wondering by now who I am D# Cm Look no further than the mirror - F7 A#m Because I am the Greed and Fear D# C#m And every ounce of Hate in you.
