[Verse]

Em              C
Girl i hope you understand

  G         B
i wanted to hold your hand

Em                    C 
but i can't wanted to be 

                  G  B
Your man back then.

Em
And you knew 

I fell for you but

C                      
you just broke my heart 
       G
In two i was sad, 

Mad, broken on my bed

Bm
hoping i get rid of 

All the voices in my head
 
 
[Chorus]

Em                      
i was opening a packet of 
   C
An undeveloped med

               G                  
when i was met with a  prescription 
     B
Of a bullet made of lead,

         Em                    C
and when i woke up in an hour and

 I a pool of my own sweat

G                            
i said ”i swear to god i never
          B
 Even try to sleep again”

Em                       
so instead i took my pen 

            C
And started writing evidence

         G
and when i started making sense
B
i found out that

I had reached the end

Em
Oh I'm  upset i have no friends
C
you wanna bet you just pretend
G
you're just a pet confined
B
afraid within the 

Lens of writing
 
you're not
 
 
[Verse]

Em                  
i thought i stopped

    C          G 
 My psychopath ways 

           B
 I swear i did
Em                 C               
i said i talked to people about the

 G                  B
 Problematic life i lived

Em                           C      
they were my neighbors razor blades 
              G               B
And different flavored pills i hate

Em                                    
therefore i’m not sure 

C 
I lean my last straw 

    G                B
I’m so gassed in the past i said that

Em              C
Girl i hope you understand

G           B
i wanted to hold your hand but

Em                C  
i can't wanted to be 

                   G  B
Your man back then

Em             C
so far i never held 

You with my arms

G               B
so it’s hard to be the one you

Em                  C          
aren’t with instead filled with
         G
 Anxiety always was a part of me

B
guess i’m not guess

 I’m not cut out to be
 
 
[Chorus]

Em                                   
somebody cause it's not me

 C 
 I’m not used to 

                          G
all the talking it was an introvert

                  
that had converted 

B
Feelings in the writings

        Em                       
used to cope with all my problems 

C
Using notes and lots of rhyming

G                          
used to hope for better days 

B
Whenever nights without me crying

Em                           
i’m not lying when i say that 

        C
I would rather go back to the

G                     B
times i would try and be the

 Guy that people know is always

Em                  C
fighting hiding far behing an 

Island full of

G              B
violence in my head why the pilot so
 
 
[Verse]

Em                 C
nothing can’t feel the silence

G          B
no one can love as i did

Em           C
nobody cares who light is

G            B
not fair you still deny it

Em                 C
nothing can’t feel the silence

G          B
no one can love as i did

Em           C
nobody cares who light is

G            B
not fair you still deny it
 
 
[Chorus]

Em            C                      G
sometimes i’m shy and sky turns grey

                     B
I’m feeling coursing frew my veins

Em     C               G        
I said before “i’m not ok”, but 

B
You don’t listen anyway

Em               C
You know i tried you turned away

G              B
Straight right to my face

Em
Ruined my life

C
Ruined my day

G             B               Em C G
But you don’t know so i say oo

G         B            Em C  G
