Bm D#m A G#m
Shopping for formaldehyde 'cause all my friends are dying
Bm D#m A G#m
Another rapper dead last Sunday, I'm sick of the word trying

Lines at the memorial and more when we get home
Bm D#m A G#m
'Cause we're so cool if we drop dead, they'll be someone to phone
[Chorus]
E G#m F#
Watching from the outside, hands on the sharp fence
E G#m G
Ignorance is bliss and I guess your joyous content
E G#m F#
I love you, oh I love you, but you're dripping through the faucet
E G#m G
And I guess I won't sell that black dress that is in my closet

It's true you don't give sh*ts 'bout me, I'm not here for the test

Push my limits carelessly, text sorry with an x

I'm strong, but you're my cheerleader, or you can get to f*ck

My energy is precious and to get me is pure luck
[Chorus]
E G#m F#
Watching from the outside, hands on the sharp fence
E G#m G
Ignorance is bliss and I guess your joyous content

I love you, oh I love you, but you're dripping through the faucet

And I guess I won't sell that black dress that is in my closet
