This song has some weird phaser/phlanger effect to it
for most of the song... but I don't have one and it
sounds pretty damn good without it :)

Full Distortion

(Verse 2)
(Chorus 2)
These 2 are played exactly the same as the beginning.
The bridge is pretty much Chorus Pt. 2 without the palm muting parts,
so I don't really feel like tabbing it all over again...
Yeah yeah, I know, I'm a lazy ass... well here's an idea, LEARN HOW
TO PLAY IT YOURSELF! :)
End:
"Wander off into your nebula..."
When you play Chorus Pt. 2 after the bridge, play it once normally
then once like this...

Lyrics:
Do you enjoy your sight inside?
Disconnect and let me drift
Before my upside down is right side in
Society must let the artist go
And wander off into the nebula!
Wander off into your nebula
Your nectarine of multiplicity
Cums like orgasmatron
On overdrive
Wander off into your nebula
Your tangerine of electricity
Is ripe and on a vine
So pick your prize
In little black book do I confide!
Upon return I conjure what was seen
I let it pulse and boil within my limbs
I lay my pencil to the porous page
And let my lunatic indulge itself
Comments:
This is probably my favourite song from my favourite Incubus CD! :)
But now it's not my favourite Incubus song, Stellar is, but hey this
is still an awesome song! hehe... ANYWAYS. This song is pretty damn
repetitive, but it's still REALLY fun to play and it's really heavy
too. That's almost an oxymoron, a heavy song that's fun to play :)
ANYWAYS...
