NOTE: the finger-tapping part here is tabbed approximately, as I'd find it
impossible to hear every single note, without having one of those devices
that can slow the music down. I have the same tapping pattern repeating,
while in the song it actually varies slightly.

Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Riff 1 (x4)
---> Play Riff 1 over:
With the words slaying me slow
The verbs that just don't flow
Confusing use of time
Partial stoning of the heart
Waiting for something to start
Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 2a over:
But the trying again
Makes me think it's all gonna end
Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 3 (x2) over:
But every time I turn the volume down
All I hear is the deafening sound
Of your heart's pound
---> Play First Solo over Riff 3 (x2)
---> Play Riff 2b over:
But the trying again
Makes me think it's all gonna end
Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Today the longest day
Hearing repeating things you'd say
Confusing use of time
Can you hear the void I describe
What do I say vacancy sounds like
Confusing use of time
---> Play Riff 2a over:
But the trying again
Makes me think it's all gonna end
Confusing use of time
---> Play Second Solo over Riff 3 (x4)
