[Intro]
Bb Dm/A Gm F
 
[Part 1]
Bb
I walk with my hands in my pockets
 
So you can't see my cracking skin
Dm/A
And I wear my hoodie tight
 
So you can't see the state I'm in
Gm
I might cry while out in public, because I just wanna be seen
F
And I'll go live up in the mountains
 
Wipe my entire slate clean
 
[Part 2]
Bb
So please cover me in roses
 
Toss me down into the dirt
Dm/A
And please upturn all your noses
 
Your disgust, it causes hurt
Gm
And please push me off this ledge, until I break all of my bones
F
And please put me on display, in a big world that's filled with phones
 
[Part 3]
Bb
I can't think straight
 
Without a stutter forming on my lips
Dm/A
I can't organize my thoughts
 
When you're with me, swinging hips
Gm
And I can't focus
 
On the light that's shining down
F
And I can't forget
 
About the dark that's blinding now
 
[Part 4]
Bb
So suck my blood, from head to toe
 
Then play me the trombone
Dm/A
And I'll suffer silently
 
And laugh and clap for your grand show
Gm
I'm wearing platform boots
 
That make me sixty damn feet tall
F
So you can't help and blame me
 
If I wanna trip and fall
 
[Part 5]
Bb
Because I got bruises on my brain
 
From all the days that I ignore
Dm/A
All the stress, and immaturity, and pain
 
That was just stored
Gm
In this rotting little adolescent thing I call my head
F
I plan to visit my own grave, on the day I end up dead
 
[Part 6]
Bb
And I'll put flowers on the tombstone
 
Let them shrivel up and rot
Dm/A
And they'll talk about me on TV
Gm
And they'll say that I just fought all the battles that faced me head on
 
Even though I lost
F
And they'll make a golden coffin, and not worry about the cost
 
[Part 7]
Bb
So, I solemnly swear
 
Not to off myself to these chords
Dm/A
I'll build a city in my brain until my muscles are left sore
Gm7
I'll live to be eighty years of age, purely out of spite
F
So tell me, people on the TV
 
How's that for a fight?
 
[Outro]
Bb Dm/A Gm F
