[Verse 1] (fig. 1)
D
I've been away, a little while
Bm
Sometimes I just can't help myself
Dadd9
When my mind's running wild
E
I seem to lose grip on reality
D
And I try to disregard
Bm Dadd9
The crazy things the voices tell me to do
E
But it's no use
D Bm
I tried to own it, write songs about it
F#m E
Believe me, I tried, in the end, I needed to breathe
D Bm
Find inspiration, some kind of purpose
F#m E D Bm Dadd9
To take a second to face what makes me, me
[Chorus] (strum open chords)
D Bm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m E D
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#m E D
Every awful thing, every broken dream
Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#m E
Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
D Bm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m E
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room
[Verse 2] (fig. 1)
D
I see the world a couple of times
Bm
Tried to cure the ache with absence
Dadd9
But that hole was still a hole
E
And my mind kept playing tricks on me
D
Feeling older every day
Bm Dadd9
Took everything I had to not crash and burn
E
But I'm starting to learn
D Bm
Sometimes I'll fall down, sometimes I'll lose hope
F#m E
But those days will be few if I keep my feet on the ground
D Bm
I might be lonely, but I ain't alone here
F#m E D Bm Dadd9
So I keep pushing the limits of what makes me, me
[Chorus] (strum open chords)
D Bm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m E D
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#m E D
Every awful thing, every broken dream
Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#m E
Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
D Bm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m E D Bm F#m E
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room
D Bm F#m E
Alone in a room
[Bridge] (fig. 1)
D Bm F#m
'Cause I can be
E
Better than I was
D Bm F#m
I can be
E
Better than I am
[Outro]
D Bm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m E D
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#m E D
Every awful thing, every broken dream
Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#m E
Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
D Bm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#m E D Bm F#m E
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room
