Verse
DM7Just got back today and
I'm searching round the place
ELooking for you-know-who
But there's no sign yet
DM7Singing, auto-pilot days
Shining, ultra-violet rays
EOn this dusty skeleton
I feel akin on a cosmic level
 
Verse
DM7I can see right through ya
Yeah I can read your bones
EJust like a telephone book
Maybe I should, give it up, begin again
DM7I Am exercising how good it feels to be alit
EAnd no surprises up my sleeve
Everything is temporary
 
Chorus
DM7 EOoh, praying mantis on my door
Looking for meaning or just any sign at all
DM7 EOoh, organising all my thoughts, making then
DM7 ERhyme, choosing wisely where I spend my time
 
 
Verse
DM7Gimme midnight love again
Feeling somewhat alien
EI'm floating aimless
But got my feet concreted
DM7Beneath this creature of habit
ETeach me the magic of an extra ordinary day
Anodyne the time away
DM7And there's no such thing as a
EPerfect melody but I keep searching every
Morning in the trees
 
Chorus
DM7 EOoh, praying mantis on my door
Looking for meaning or just any sign at all
DM7 EOoh, organising all my thoughts, making then
Rhyme, choosing wisely where I spend my time
 
Bridge
DM7 EI got my head sorted sort of, I keep
Going, just because yeah just because
DM7 EI got my head sorted sort of, I keep
Going, just because yeah just because
