  			A  
Breathing from a hole in my lung  
G  
I had no one  
A  
But faces in front of me  

Racing through the void in my head  
G Bm F#m  
To find traces of a good luck academy  

F#m G D A  

A  
Sparks ignite and trade them for thought  
G  
About no one  
A  
And nothing in particular  

Washed the sickened socket and drove

Resent nothing

There’s good will inside of me

Wake me up lower the fever

Walking in a straight line

Set me on fire in the evening

Everything will be fine  
C C/A B/A F#m  
Waking up strong in the morning  
E D A  
Walking in a straight line

But walking in a straight line

A  
Something I will never forget

I felt desperate

And a damsel with no heroine

There’s no changing yesterday

If we keep talking and

I keep walking in straight lines
