Lyrics:

EmSometimes life it takes you by tDhe hand

CIt puts you down before you knowD it

GIt's gone and you're dead again D

EmI've been in places and I won't Dpretend

CThat I make it ID just

GFollow mDy head Em

EmWhen it's strange to take a walkD downstairs

CSweep you all up on a corner D

GAnd pay for my bread D

EmYou know that I cannot believe mDy own truth

CTo show what a tDruth

GGot nothDing to lEmose

EmYeah yeah and it's okay D

CI tie my hands up to a cDhair

GSo I don't fall that wayD

EmYeah yeah and I'm alrighDt

CI took a sip of somethinDg poison

GBut I'llD hold onEm tight

You know those days when you wanted to choose

To not get out of bed and

Get lost in your head again

You play the game but you gotta cut

Cuz' you're coming down hard

Your joints are off stud

I tried to say that's not the only way

I never knew if I could

Convince myself to change

You were pacing I was insecure

Slip and fall I got the calls of the

Prison I was living in

Yeah yeah and it's okay

I tie my hands up to a chair

So I don't fall that way

Yeah yeah and I'm alright

I took a sip of something poison

But I'll hold on tight
