Verse
G* G* C*
At what point did I fuck this up
Am* G#
I lost myself but I gained a crutch
C# A#m C#
It's so much harder than I thought it was
G# C# A#m
Been spending my nights getting too fucked up
C#
I think I'm a mess
G#
I think too much
C# A#m C#
More dependent than I ever was
[Pre-Chorus]
G* C* Am* C*
There's a train track nestled between my house and work
Am*
And I don't stop at the stop sign
C* G#
I put my life in the hands of the universe
C#
If there's a train let it take me
A#m C#
If there's a train then I guess that it's my time
G# C#
And I gasp and I cringe and I hope and I dread
A#m
And then it's over, I'm on the other side
[Chorus]
G#
Life's a short trip
C#
You're the pilot
A#m C# G#
I'm not sure that I'm ready to land this thing yet
C#
I've always wanted to drown
A#m
My odds are better in the water
C#
So if we go down I'm aiming for the ground
[Verse 2]
G# C#
I wanna set myself on fire
A#m
Could you please watch?
C# G#
See me burn as bright as I have always seen myself
C#
So you'll know I'm not a liar
A#m C#
So I can feel all the pain I've always thought I felt
G# C#
I keep ending up here on the floor
A#m
At least in different rooms
C#
So at least I don't get bored
G#
Oh, existing's such a chore
C# A#m
It's so strange how some days I end up stuck in bed
C#
And other days I don't get stuck until I reach the door
[Chorus]
G#
Life's a short trip
C#
You're the pilot
A#m C# G#
I'm not sure that I'm ready to land this thing yet
C#
I've always wanted to drown
A#m
My odds are better in the water
C#
So if we go down I'm aiming for the ground
G#
Life's a short trip
C#
You're the pilot
A#m C#
There's an answer and I'm sure we'll find it
G#
Life's a short trip
C#
You're the pilot
A#m C#
There's an answer and I'm sure we'll find it
G#
[Bridge]
G*
Try to be enough for myself
C*
You're so strong you don't need help
G*
It's so hard to rely on anyone else
C*
You're so strong you don't need help
G#
I tried to leave the house
C#
I stopped at four different gas stations
G# C#
Went back to the first and found the nerve to get out
G# C#
But when I finally made it in, couldn't decide what to get
G#
I went and hid in the bathroom
C#
It's my favorite anxious habit
G#
Then I went back home
C#
I gave up and got stoned
G#
I can hardly face the world
C#
I sure as hell can't face it alone
G# C#
I'm holding out for something more
G#
Let's see what life has in store for me
C# G#
I'll try to keep breathing, but existing's such a chore
C#
So I am holding out for more
G#
Let's see what life has in store for me
C# C*
I'll try to keep breathing, but existing's such a chore
