Verse
D#
You can tell me that it’s not my fault
Gm A#/D
Sleep all day, wide awake when the night falls
D#
And I don’t know who I’m supposed to be
Gm A#/D
"Just be yourself", the fuck is that supposed to mean
D#
Told you that I’d stay in touch
Gm A#/D
But things change and these days I don’t get out much
D#
And I’m sorry that I’ve not been there
Gm A#/D
Just things are tough, please don’t tell me I don’t fucking care
[Interlude]
