Chorus:Em
Girl, I hope you understand
C
I wanted to hold your hand
G B
But I canʼt, wanted to be your man back then
Em
And you knew I fell for you but you
C
Just broke my heart in two
G
I was sad, mad, and broken on my bed
B
Hoping I get rid of all the voices in my head
Em
I was opening a packet of an undeveloped med
C
When I was met with a prescription of a bullet made of lead
G
And when I woke up in an hour in a pool of my own sweat
B
I said, «I swear to God Iʼll never even try to sleep again»
Em
So instead I took my pen and started writing evidence
C
And whеn I started making sense
I found that I had rеached the end
G
Oh, Iʼm upset, I have no friends
You wanna bet youʼre just pretend?
B
Youʼre just a pet confined within the lines of writing
Youʼre not shit
Em C
I thought I stopped my psychopathic ways, I swear I did
G B
I said I talked to people ʼbout the problematic life I lived
Em
They were my neighbors, razor blades
C
And different flavored pills I hate
G
Therefore Iʼm not sure, leave my last straw
B
Iʼm so glad, stuck in the past, I said that
Chorus:Em
Girl, I hope you understand
C
I wanted to hold your hand
G B
But I canʼt, wanted to be your man back then
Em
And so far I never held you with my arms
C
So itʼs hard to be the one you arenʼt
G
With instead filled with anxiety
B
Always was a part of me, guess Iʼm not cut out to be
Em
Somebody ʼcause itʼs not me
C
Iʼm not used to all the talk, it was an introvert
That had converted feelings into writing
G
Used to cope with all my problems
Using notes and lots of rhyming
B
Used to hope for better days whenever nights
Would have me crying
Em
Iʼm not lying when I say that I would rather daily go back
C
To the times I would try be the guy the people know
G
I was fighting with the demons hiding far beyond my eyelids
B
On an island full of violence in my head that I could pilot
Em C
Oh, the sun donʼt shine, the skies turn gray
G
I felt it coursing through my veins
I said before Iʼm not okay
B
But you donʼt listen anyway
Em
You know I tried, you turned away
C
You straight up lied right to my face
G
You fucked my life, ruined my day
B
But you donʼt know, so Iʼll say
Bridge:Em
Nothing can fill this silence,
C
No one can love like I did
(You donʼt know, so Iʼll say)
G
Nobody cares, you lied,
B
Itʼs no fair, you still deny it
(So Iʼll say)
Em
Nothing can fill this silence,
C
No one can love like I did
(You donʼt know, so Iʼll say)
G
Nobody cares, you lied,
B
Itʼs no fair, you still deny it
(So Iʼll say)
Chorus:Em
Girl, I hope you understand
C
I wanted to hold your hand
G B
But I canʼt, wanted to be your man back then
Em
And too bad I know I canʼt wake up
C
Because I lost my weight and you donʼt give a fuck
G B
About me, this could be a dream, I canʼt see
The things that you see, so please, oh
Em
Girl, I hope you understand
C
I wanted to hold your hand
G B
But I canʼt, wanted to be your man back then
Em
And you know Iʼll play along
C
You were my home, I wrote you songs
G
And now youʼre dead to me effectively
B
Removed yourself outside my dreams
