[Verse 1] (fig. 1)
D
I've been away, a little while
Bm
Sometimes I just can't help myself
Dadd9
When my mind's running wild
E
I seem to lose grip on reality
D
And I try to disregard
BmDadd9
The crazy things the voices tell me to do
E
But it's no use
DBm
I tried to own it, write songs about it
F#mE
Believe me, I tried, in the end, I needed to breathe
DBm
Find inspiration, some kind of purpose
F#mEDBmDadd9
To take a second to face what makes me, me
[Chorus] (strum open chords)
DBm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#mED
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#mED
Every awful thing, every broken dream
Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#mE
Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
DBm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#mE
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room
[Verse 2] (fig. 1)
D
I see the world a couple of times
Bm
Tried to cure the ache with absence
Dadd9
But that hole was still a hole
E
And my mind kept playing tricks on me
D
Feeling older every day
BmDadd9
Took everything I had to not crash and burn
E
But I'm starting to learn
DBm
Sometimes I'll fall down, sometimes I'll lose hope
F#mE
But those days will be few if I keep my feet on the ground
DBm
I might be lonely, but I ain't alone here
F#mEDBmDadd9
So I keep pushing the limits of what makes me, me
[Chorus] (strum open chords)
DBm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#mED
To sit alone in a room and say it all out loud
Bm
Every moment, every second, every trespass
F#mED
Every awful thing, every broken dream
Bm
A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#mE
Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
DBm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted
F#mEDBmF#mE
To sit alone in a room, alone in a room
DBmF#mE
Alone in a room
[Bridge] (fig. 1)
DBmF#m
'Cause I can be
E
Better than I was
DBmF#m
I can be
E
Better than I am
[Outro]
DBm
All I needed was the last thing I wanted

Every moment, every second, every trespass

Every awful thing, every broken dream

A couple of years back and forth with myself in a cage
F#mE
Banging my head 'gainst the wall, tryna' put words on a page
