Tonight, my mother said that I
                   Bb
Should never go outside
                       F
That I should run and hide
                    Ab     C

A one, two, three
 
     C                                                    G
So, I'm lost in the supermarket shopping for my sense of self
                                                    Bb
I wandered down the aisles tryna figure out where I disappeared to
                           F
What will I adhere to? And what could I appear to be?
    C
And maybe I'm with the strawberries, alone on the shelf
             G
Because they breathe and bleed, and they're sweet like me
             Bb
They hold my hand and they make it seem that right now
        F
In this moment, I don't need to be afraid

I, I'd rather go blind
                       Bb
Than to look into your eyes
                    F
And tell you that I lied
                    Ab      C

C
So I made myself sad ‘cause I feel comfortable here
     G
So I made myself mad because I don't want to steer
      Bb
To be off the rails is to live without fear
             F
But when you start feeling nothing, nothing becomes clear
           C
So, please speak, please laugh, please dance, please cry
     G
Feel every fuckin' tear that falls from your eye
          Bb
‘Cause to feel is to breathe and to fear is to be free
          F
And to be free is what it means to be successful to me

That I put into my phone

I just feel that I'm not real
                               Bb
I put my hands on the steering wheel
                            F
And if I crash, I'm made of steel
