[Verse]
I am the dog s
leeping on roc
ks that have b
een sealed in
concrete postu
res
Just to beauti
fy the nature
in this downto
wn park
I have been pr
aying westward
towards a Mec
ca called Sant
a Cruz
I will accept
that there's n
o heaven when
I accept that
there's no boo
ze
But I feel wea
k
Cause I can't
speak
Can't finish s
entences
Like I used to
3-2-1-0 on low E string
I concentrate
on all the pos
itive things I
have in my li
fe
Like my family
and this one
girl who keeps
me sane at ni
ght
And I feel bad
That I feel ba
d
I give them gr
ief
When I don't h
ave to

I am the anger
that you feel
when you real
ize nobody car
ed at all
I am the anger
at yourself o
r maybe at the
alcohol
I am that rush
that you get
when you ponde
r taking a lif
e
But to say tha
t you were ser
ious would jus
t be another l
ie
And you feel w
eak
You can't spea
k
Can't help but
feeling
A little rippe
d off
[Chorus]
So take me awa
y from here
Take me away f
rom here
And looking ba
ck
Give me some l
ove or give me
a backpack

[Verse]
I am the dog s
leeping on roc
ks that have b
een sealed in
concrete postu
res
Just to beauti
fy the nature
in this plasti
c wing-field p
ark
I am the stren
gth between re
lations
I am fascinati
on, bipolar ag
gravation
I am self-medi
cation
I am masturbat
ion
I am indoctrin
ation
And you are a
greyhound stat
ion
[Chorus]
So take me awa
y from here
Take me away f
rom here
And looking ba
ck
Don't need lov
e just give me
a backpack
Play Em and C and pick the high e string and the B string then strum G
