Em
Fuck you and your lies
D
And your last goodbyes
Am
You're a victim in your own game
C
Stick it to mister no-name
Em
Pity, anger
D
Guess I don't hold the answer
Am C
I can take my own weight, same yesterday
Em
And it goes round and around
D
Round and around
Am
A vicious circle how can it be
C
That this feeling's got a hold of me?
Em
I'm fine
D
This is the last time
Am
Be free
C
Someone took these chains off of me
Em
And I
G
Should be happy on my own
Am
And I
C
Don't want to make you feel at home
Em
'Cause I know that when I'm lonely
G
You'll be by my side
Am
But it's only when I'm lonely
C
That you seem to make me cry
Em
I'm numb, lonely
D
Thought I was the only one
Am
It's hard to find the right words
C
Knowing that they'll all hurt
Em
In sync with the sunset
D
Down and I am out for the night
Am
Surrounded by the darkness
C
Trying to find the light
Em
And it fluctuates
D
I'm infatuated with my fate
Am
In the depth of my sadness
C
I can't wait to reach that high
Em
I'm fine
D
This is the last time
Am
Be free
C
Someone took these chains off of me
Em
'Cause I
G
Should be happy on my own
Am
And I
C
Don't want to make you feel at home

'Cause I know that when I'm lonely

You'll be by my side

That you seem to make me cry

But it's only when I'm lonely

That you seem to make me cry
