[Fm] [C#] [Fm] [C#]
[G#] I know that I have issues, I face them, I swear
Think I overcome them, then turn, they're still there
Wish that I was different, I'd like to let go
[D#] But when I try to change, there's [G#] my past saying no
[D#] Maybe it's all [C#m] cause of dad, his new [Fm] kids, his new wife
Or why not [C#] just blame mom, who's been [D#] nuts my whole life
[Fm] When you felt so [C#] alone since the [G#] moment of birth
And you struggle to [D#] find your own true sense of worth
[Fm] When it seems there is [C#] no one across this whole [Cm] earth
To depend upon, you carry on
[G#] Just [Fm] like you [D#]
[G#] always do
Cause it's safer [C#] to rely [Fm] on [Cm] you
Oh, it's [C#m] safer to [Fm] rely on [C#] you
[Fm] Seen [C#] [G#] a million movies all selling true love
Fantasies I'm not sure that I'm worthy [Cm] of
Caution to [C#] the wind, my heart's been on [G#] display
Still the end result is it's not gone my [D#] way
So when I [G#] date some new guy, who's a deadbeat or jerk
At [C#] least I'm not so crushed [D#] when it all doesn't work
[Fm] When you once, [C#] unafraid, wore your heart on your [G#] sleeve
And the one that you [D#] loved chose to just turn and [Fm] leave
Every day it gets [C#] harder to somehow [Cm] believe
You will survive, so you [Fm] strive
Just to keep [D#] on [C#] your guard
[G#] Cause it's [C#] safer to hold [Fm] every [Cm] card
Oh, it's [C#] safer to [G#] hold every card
[D#] I feel out of [C#] control, I feel [G#] safe on the [D#] ground
I go building up [C#] walls, yet I [G#] wish to be [C] found
A true [C#] contradiction to which I am
[Fm] As I keep on [C#] spinning around and around
[F#m] And I look at the people [D] who've worked [A] it all out
And I wonder why [E] I'm still a bundle of doubt
[D] And sometimes I wanna just stand up and shout
[C#m] Just [A] commit and deal with it
Before [F#m] your [E] life [D] don't [F#m] let your [E] life
[D] [A]
But is it safer?
[D] [F#m] Maybe it's safe
[Em] [G] If I [F#m] don't try
[D] [A]
[G#] I know that I have issues, I face them, I swear
