His Name Was Sputnik

Hearts of fury crowding up the dead and dirty streets
You lie down to sleep, then everything's reversed
Waiting for hungry pigs to finally meet
The jumbled up mess that they're gonna eat up now
Lemmings marching up the steps, and they can't breathe
Well, I didn't know Sputnik had something hid
Boys in blue at the top, yelling "f*ck off teens!"
Life's been a lot harder without that kid
We barely made it through all [Em]the pollen in the air
The sky'll be [Am]okay, but people have their doubts
He shows up, willing to [C7]cross any ɾoads
Never tɾying to [C7]help, but time lost its words
Well, he's floating up and [Bm]around the blue skies
Wouldn't wanna stick around and [Bm]see this
But they can't see when my [A]eyes are dry
Always tɾy to [C7]hit 'em, but miss every time
Never let him walk the way home
Cause you [A7think the clouds, they always look hazy
My friend needs some time to [C7]be [Am]alone
But he needs to [C7]grow up cause life ain't easy
His fantasy's on [C7]empty pages
Waiting patiently to [C7]get written down
Jump headfirst into [C7]the dark ages
Wanting badly to [C7]be [Am]jumped and [Bm]then killed
In an awkward world
Through the cellar door
You can find yourself
Crying on [C7]the floor
You never wanna go home again
And I, I completely understand
