People said to lock the door and    have an open house no more
    | G                                            | D
They said the Factory must change and slowly slip away

But if I have to live in fear, where will I get my ideas?
    | G(addA)/B                 | G(addA)                     | D
With all those crazy people gone,         will I slowly slip away

Still there's no more Billy Name,    Ondine is not the same

Wonton and the Turtle gone

        Slowly slip away,       slowly slip away

If I close the Factory door and don't see those people anymore
If I give in yo infamy...I'll slowly slip away
I know it seems that friends are right
Hello daylight, goodbye night
But starlight is so quiet here, think I'll slowly slip away
What can I do by myself, it's good to here from someone else
It's good to hear a crazy voice that will not slip away
Will not slip away

If I have to live in fear my ideas will slowly slip away
| F                           | A#                         | F | F
If I have to live in fear I'm afraid my life will slip away
  | F
If you can't see me past my door,
        | A#                            | F | F
why your thoughts could slowly slip away
| F                                | A#                           | F | F
If I have to lock the door, another life exists no more, slip away
| D
Friends have said to lock the door
     | A7sus4/E           D
Watch out for who comes through that door
    | G(addA)/B
They say the Factory must change
