[F] [Gb]
[Db] [Ebm] [Abm]
[B] [Db]
[B] [Db]
[Gb] I really need to [Fm] talk with you
[Ebm] I keep stepping on the vein that [B] puts my lifeline flowing through
[Ebm] I wanna be your perfect [Fm] stick of glue
But I [Ebm] don't feel perfect at all
Sad and insecure flaw
I find it hard to hold a [Fm]
conversation
[Ebm] I get sweaty sick and I wanna [B] walk away
[Ebm] It's not you or strictly me in this [Fm] situation
But I'm wondering [Ebm] will it ever go away?
Go away
[Abm] Sometimes I feel like [Gb] weeping
Awaken when I'm sleeping
[Eb] Perfecting how to put a [Ebm] game face on
[Abm] This puzzle I've been [Gb] keeping
Has been in hiding
Creeping [Db] out the closet door
[Bb] Spilling out onto the floor
How [Gb] long
[Ebm] Will I be picking [Db] up these [Gb] pieces?
[Ebm] [Eb]
[Gb] How long
[Ebm] Will [Eb] I be picking up my [B] heart?
[Db] Listen, Blue Family
[Ebm] I'll be as honest [Fm] as I feel
[Ebm] I'm paranoid because I'm hearing shit
[B] And it never turns out right
[Gb] It feels like my heart is [Fm] made of pure steel
It's [Ebm] just so heavy all the time
I'm scared of death, [Fm] I'm scared of living
[Ebm] I gave up on the past cause it's [B] unforgiving
Shit
[Ebm] I misplaced my trust, I watched my [Fm] word begin to rust
I'm a [Ebm] balloon about to bust
I need [B] a place for reliving
[Abm]
Sometimes I feel like [Gb] weeping
Awaken when I'm sleeping
[Db] Perfecting how to put this [Ebm] game face on
[Eb] This [Abm] puzzle I've been [Gb] keeping
Has been in hiding
[Db] Creeping out the closet door
[Bb] Spilling out onto the floor How [Gb] long
[Ebm]
Will I [Eb] be picking up these [Gb] pieces?
[Ebm] [Eb] How [Gb] long
[Ebm] Will [Eb] I be picking up [Db] my heart?
