Verse 1:

     C 
He's crossing out lines, he's got nothing to say 
C 
Shooting Russian roulette just to learn to play 
         G 
Throwing rocks at a car till it throws on it's breaks 
G 
He's going to far cause thats what it takes 
G 
Learning cause and effect, letter by letter 
G 
Making everything worse so it can only get better, all right 



           G 
Become the one, become the all, become the big, become the small 
         Em 
Become complete, become destroyed 
       G        D      G 
Become nothing, be the void 




Verse 2:
 
        C 
Is this strange I don't know, is this wrong, I'm not sure 
C 
I'm not clear as a window, but I'll gladly be a door 
              G 
And if you're ever in between, stop and say hello 
G 
Yeah its lonely in between, to know when not to know 
           C 
And on the day that I die, the dearly departed 
C 
When I look back and say, "I like how I started" 


           G 
Become the one, become the all, become the big, become the small 
         Em 
Become complete, become destroyed 
       G        D      G 
Become nothing, be the void 



Verse 3: 
G 
Look down the street, till time is worn out 
    C 
Its all my other days, become scattered about 
                  G 
And I'll become a song so big around, I'll become a dream, became a sound 
           C             
I become a name wrote into snow, I'll be fucking chilling 


           G 
Become the one, become the all, become the big, become the small 
         Em 
Become complete, become destroyed 
       G        D      G 
Become nothing, be the void (3x)
