Intro Bm Em D F#m7
Bm Em D
I've never fit into any category, always
F#m7
Deemed an outcast
Bm Em
Since I was in Sunday school and all the
D F#m7
Cool kids said I was weird
Bm
It's exactly the same, they say
Em D
Why do you dress that way? Why do you act
That way?
F#m7
Why don't you dress like me?
Bm
So is that what you really wanna say to me?
Em
You playin' games with me
D
Tellin' you're for my kind, still you
Abandon me
F#7
Calling me words I'm not paintin' a picture that's false
Bm Em
You must not know my heart, but I know it isn't your fault
D
You live in a world and you clutch, you
F#m7
Don't get out very much
Bm Em
Livin' in the fake world, full of facades
D
And chaotic behavior
F#7
You pull the lever for fun, yell fire, then
F#
You just run
Bm Em
Fire drill, what would happen if a nuke just hit
D
Would you say bye to your family? Would you
F#m
Post about it?
Bm Em
Fire drill, if it all went up in flames one day
D F#m
Would you give your mom a hug before your house burned away?
Bm Em
It kills, I wish the best for you
D F#7

Bm Em
Really, I'm tryna live my own life

Be present more, and so should you, it's alright to
Bm Em
Cryin' inside
D F#m7
'Cause nothin' I ever say comes alright
Bm Em
We're on the same side
D
If I'm honest with you, you just run and
F#m7
Hide
Bm Em
I'm bad at public speaking
D F#m7
But I'm speaking now so hear me out (shut up)
Bm Em D
I personally believe that everyone is fully
F#m
Capable
Bm
Of more than what they're doing, all of the
Em
Bullying
D
All of the screwing around with people they
F#m7
Don't even really know, oh (Bla,bla,bla,bla)
Bm Em
Eatin' a hate soufflé, and an angry bit of sorbet
D
All 'cause you were bored one day
F#7
Losing your wits and your grace
Bm Em
Fire drill, what would happen if a nuke just hit
D
Would you stay bye to your family? Would
F#m
You post about it?

Love is seeping out my pores, I don't hold anger anymore

Even for people who hurt and betrayed me (okay)
