Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Riff 1 (x4)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
   With the worlds slaying me slow
   The verbs that just don't flow
   Confusing use of time
   Partial stoning of the heart
   Waiting for something to start
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 2 (Acoustic) over:
   But the trying again
   Makes me think it's all gonna end
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 3 over:
   But everytime I turn the volume down
   All that I hear is the deafening sound
   Of your hearts pound
---> Play Riff 3 (x2) and Solo 1
---> Play Riff 2 (Electric) over:
   But the trying again
   Makes me think it's all gonna end
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 1 over:
   Today, the longest day
   Hearing repeating things you'd say
   Confusing use of time
   Can you hear the void that I describe
   What could I say vacancy sounds like
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 2 (Acoustic) over:
   But the trying again
   Makes me think it's all gonna end
   Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 3 (x4) and Solo 2
