[Verse 1]
E F#
Once somebody said to me
G#m (Bm)
Mother Mary let it be
E F# G#m (Bm)
And it helps to deal with my anxiety
E F#
See, I built a wall, it didn't hold

In the now, right now, I'm just trying to breathe

It's okay to feel like you're running on empty
E F# G#m
Life will let you down, try not to get bitter

Some days I hate everything, life don't make no sense to me
(Bm) E
I'm standing in the mirror now
(Bm) G#m (Bm)
I'm standing here, I'm screaming out
[Pre-Chorus]
E F# G#m (Bm)
Never burn a bridge 'less you're a real good swimmer
E F# G#m (Bm)
If you start to look around, everybody else is winning
