Intro
Dmaj7*
G5add#11*
Verse 1
N.C.
I think I feel more relieved when no one remembers I exist,
Dmaj7*
Because the butterflies in my stomach have flown through my heart and are stuck in my throat,
N.C. G5add#11* G*
And I think for once I´m okay with being alone.
Verse 2
N.C.
No one cares when you cry,
N.C.
They´re only there when you smile,
Dmaj7*
Sometimes I wanna reverse it all back to when I was a child,
N.C.
Dealing with scarred knees instead of scarred wrists,
N.C.
Not feeling the urge to crash my bike...
G5add#11* G*
Will you remember me, when I´m gone?
Verse 3
N.C.
The city is so busy yet no one can see the tears on my cheeks,
Dmaj7*
Because I painted them blue so they would blend in,
N.C.
I tried to paint my blackened heart red again so it will beat faster,
N.C. G5add#11*
But I don’t know why I even bother.
Verse 4
G*
Tell me,
N.C.
If I float face down in a river this Tuesday who will be my lifeguard?
Dmaj7* Dmaj7*
Will the fish feed on me so at least I have a use?
Dmaj7*
Or will I just decompose wake up, wake up
Dmaj7* G5add#11*
I turn my pockets inside-out, so you’ll see that I´m empty,
G5add#11* G5add#11*
I´ll hold on tight to the last text that you´ve sent me,
G5add#11* G5add#11*
I´m so weak. They say one foot in front of the other,
Dmaj7*
But it´s hard when your own shoelaces are out to get you,
Dmaj7* Dmaj7* Dmaj7*
They say one day at a time, but it´s hard when even the sun glares at you with angry eyes,
G5add#11* G*
Humpty-Dumpty sat on a wall, but then he realized he didn´t have anything to live for at all,
G*
So he had his great fall!
G* Dmaj7* Dmaj7*
My own fantasies, my own cartoons in my mind can even be an escape,
Dmaj7* Dmaj7*
I´m backed in a corner, but I don´t have the strength to choose fight or flight.
Dmaj7*
So I give up and let it overtake me,
G5add#11* G5add#11*
If you have a second, maybe you can hear what I preach,
N.C.
Maybe you can watch me nail my hands on this wall,
N.C.
Maybe you can listen to me spread my religion of pain.
N.C.
Because it´s all that I know how to deal with this.
