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