I pledge allegiance

To the underworld.

One nation underdog there
     F             G
Of which I stand alone.

   C            G
A face in the crowd,
   Fmaj7            C
Unsung against the mold.

Without a doubt, singled out,
    G            C
The only way I know.

  Am             E  F   C
Stepped out of the line
 Am           E     F       G
Like a sheep runs from the herd.
 Am          E   F   C
Marching out of time
 Am        F    G
To my own beat now.
    G               B!
The only way I know.

     C          G
One light, one mind
  F              C
Flashing in the dark.
                G
Blinded by the silence
       F              G
Of a thousand broken hearts.

A free for all, fuck 'em all.

"You are your own sight."
