[Em]
[Dm] [F]
I've been [C] trying so hard to survive
Sometimes [Em] I think [G] that I wanna die
I feel [Dm] so fucking guilty
Cause God I'm so lucky to [F] live my life
So I [C] keep all the pain to myself
Losing [G] faith but nobody can tell
Mom I [Dm] don't want you worried
Cause that would just hurt me
So [F] I pretend I'm [Fm] fine
If [C] you only knew
What my mind is telling me I should [G] do
That I'm drunk and all alone in my [Dm] room here tonight
I'm too sad to cry [F] it's true
Oh, if you only [C] knew
All the shit my brain is putting me [G] through
You could run in over straight to my [Dm] room here tonight
I'm sorry but I need [F] you
Oh, if you only [C] knew
I wish I was somebody else
I'm [Em] constantly [G]
overwhelmed
Now [Dm] I'm falling again
Getting drunk with [C] some friends
It's [F] a silent [F] cry for help
I wanna get better
[Am] I want you [G] to know
That I [F] can't do this on my own
[Fm] If you only [C] knew
What my mind is telling me I should [G] do
That I'm drunk and all alone in [Dm] my room here tonight
I'm too sad to cry [F] it's true
Oh, if you only [C] knew
All the shit my brain is putting [G] me through
You could run in over straight to [Dm] my room here tonight
I'm sorry but I need [F] you
If you only [C] knew
Somebody [G] else
[Dm] Not
[F] myself
I wanna [C] tell you
What my mind is telling [D] me I [Em] should do
That I'm drunk and all alone in [Dm] my room here tonight

Oh, if you only knew

I've been [C] trying so hard to survive
