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