Don't comfort me 'cause I'm afraid

I might embarrass myself

It won't bring out the best in me

And I'm so tired of myself

Just meet me on the roof at eight

And I'II be by the fire escape this time
[Verse 2]

I'Il always love you like a child

Loves lies and fiery places

A great disguise, an old friend

To cover up my many faces

But I'm about to torch this place
G C D G
And nothing in my heart is safe, right now
[Refrain]

Maybe we're supposed to be
G C
Oh, looking at it jealousy
G C G D
'Cause nothing here means anything to me
G C
Just give me something I'II believe
G C
Don't tell another lie to me
G C G D
Another drop of irony and I'II break, break
G C
When nothing but the earth remains
G C
My demons in a darker place
G C G D
I'm never gonna hide my face again
G C
I'm heading up to higher ground
G C
I'm carried by the wind somehow
G C G D
Exactly where I'm meant to be right now, right now
