E D G A
There's a boy in chrimson rags with a grimace and a spoon

E D A B
And a little sullen girl face-up staring at the moon

E D G C
And there's no one around to hear the lonesome cry

D
Then they pass away alone into the night

E B C D E
Why do we pity the dead?

E B C D A
Are you churned by emotion from the voices in your head

E C G D
Look at all the living and you'll ask yourself why

E G D
Oh why do we pity the dead?

E E D D G G A A
E E D D A A B B

E D G A
Well you've seen the disease, suffering, and decay

E D A B
And you whisper to yourself blissfully "It's okay"

E D G C
And you still refuse the possibility

D
That the dead are better off than we

E B C D E
Why do we pity the dead?

E B C D A
Are you churned by emotion from the voices in your head

E C G D
Look at all the living and you'll ask yourself why

E G D C D E
Oh why do we pity the dead? Pity the dead

C D E C D E
Tell me what you see, tell me what you know

G D
Is there anyone who lives a painless life?

C D E
If there is, show me so

E E E E(high) E E E D
The destitude and famished, demonic and the banished

E E E E(high) E E E D
Dejected and the ostracized, the brainwashed and the paralyzed

E C G D
The conquered and objectified, the few who see the other side

C D E
Tell me what you see

G D C D E
It's a mortal wretched cacophony
