C#m               E
One journey after another
E            F#                   F#m
All over and under, mere hours behind
C#m                     E
One falls back into the other
E         F#                   F#m
Divided asunder, yet somehow aligned

[Verse 1]
D
Here let me show you –
A#(b5)        Csus2             F#m7
Even though a mere 3 days have passed
Fmaj7            Em7             G6
This protein, it typically takes 6 years to amass
 A    A#  B  C    C# A/C#  D
(Abe, I'm trying, I really am)

D                     A#(b5)
Now, all the lab guys don't believe –
     Csus2             F#m7
They think that it's a joke
Fmaj7       A#(b5)
So I put my watch inside
    Csus2               A
And counted back the strokΠ΅s
A A#   B  A#   B    C    B   C C# A/C#
Honestly, it's just hard for me   to understand
(Yes I know but take a look here at the hands...)

[Verse 2]
D
No, I believe you
A#(b5)           Csus2          F#m7
I really do, but let's not overreach
Fmaj7         Em7             G6
This thing is not just pure mechanics and/or heat
 A    A#   B    C  C# A/C#  D
(Back and forth inside a loop
D                    A#(b5)
Right, so we build a box
A#(b5)     Csus2           F#m7
That's big enough to fit into?
Fmaj7             A#(b5)
Something private and secure...
    Csus2              A
You know what we could use?
A      A#      B  A#   B    C    B    C   C#  A/C#     Dm
I want you to see it, trust me though I'm not pranking you
(Abe, who is that? What the... who is... is it you?)

[Bridge]
G#m
Who cares if every moment isn't perfect?
G#m             D#7
It hasn't disappeared...
D#7                G#m
We can reverse engineer things
G#m                                    Emaj7 F#
Making every 'choice' immaculate and ideal
G#m
So what if every perfect moment, isn't
G#m            D#7
That moment reappears and...
D#7             G#m
The chances infinite
G#m
We can just keep on going back –
Emaj7                    F#             D#7
Relive the past until we time it tight. Get it right

Em
We should just play the market –
(Who cares if every moment isn't perfect?)
B7                                        D
Let's not interfere
(It hasn't disappeared, we. Capture every word)
D
We'll hide ourselves.
(We can reverse engineer things)
Am         C6
Until our doubles disappear.
(Making every 'choice' immaculate and ideal)
C6       D       Em
(All you saw and heard)

Em                      B7
I don't believe in predetermined destiny
(So what if every perfect moment, isn't. That moment reappears and...
B7                     D
(Well tell me which is worse)
D                 Am
Thinking you're paranoid.
(The chances infinite. We can just keep on going back)
   C                  B7
Or knowing you should be?
(Relive the past until we time it tight. Get it right)

[Chorus]
Fm7
Zero – photon
Fm7       Bb Bbm
Hero – gluon
Fm7                  Bb          Bbm
I know exactly every act and variant
(Zero – photon)
Fm7     Ab                 Bb         C#
I'm all-encompassing now β€” I am prescient
(Hero – gluon)

Cm
One journey after another
Cm                               C
All over and under, mere hours behind
(Enter the fail safe)
Cm
One falls back into the other
Cm      F                      Fm
Divided asunder, yet somehow aligned
(And try again)
Cm                 Eb
One journey after another
(I know exactly every act and variant)
Eb           F                   Fm
All over and under, mere hours behind
(Exit the fail safe)
Cm                      Eb
One falls back into the other
(It's all intertwined)
Eb       D7                   F    G
Divided asunder, yet somehow aligned
(I'm all-encompassing now β€” I am prescient)
A A#    B A#  B   C B   C
A end β€” B end and A end B...
C# A/C#    D
On we go again

[Verse 3]
D                   A#(b5)
I think I'm getting used to
A#(b5)    Csus2   F#m7
All these 30-hour days
Fmaj7              Em7
But I can't get my hands to work
Em7    G6                A
I just scrawl across the page
 A A#   B   C   A/C#        D
(Aaron, how can you have no fear?)

D              A#(b5)
I can drug and hide my doubles
Csus2    F#m7
As I reappear
Fmaj7           A#(b5)
If only I could somehow stop
     Cadd2         A
This bleeding from my ears...
A A#    B    A#   B   C  B
I can't stop you, but Aaron
C     C# A/C#        Dm
Don't ever come back here
(I'll build a bigger one Go back entire years!)

[Bridge]
Dm
Who cares if
Dm
Every moment isn't perfect?
Dm        A7
It hasn't disappeared...
A7             C
We can reverse engineer things
C            Gm             Bb             C
Making every 'choice' immaculate and ideal Oh
Dm
I don't believe
(So what if every perfect moment isn't)
Dm      A7
In predetermined destiny
(That moment reappears and...)
A7                    C
Well tell me which is worse
C               G
Thinking you're paranoid
(The chances infinite. We can just keep on going back)
Bb                    C C#dim
Or knowing you should be?
(Relive the past until we time it tight. Get it right)

[Chorus]
G#m                 B
One journey after another
(I know exactly)
B            C#                  C#m
All over and under, mere hours behind
(Every act and variant. Destroy the fail safe)

G#m                     B
One falls back into the other
(I'm all-encompassing)
B        C#                    C#m
Divided asunder, yet somehow aligned
(Now I am prescient. And start again)

G# A    Aaug
A  end, B end and...?
