F                          C 
I really need to talk with you 
       Dm 
I keep stepping on the vein 
              Bb 
That keeps my lifeline flowing through. 
F                                C 
I wanna be your perfect stick of glue 
                 Dm 
But I don't feel perfect at all, 

A Sad and insecure flaw 
F                             C 
I find it hard to hold conversations 
        Dm                            Bb 
I get sweaty, sick, and I wanna walk away 
         F                                     C 
No, it's not you, this is strictly me in this situation 
                       Dm 
I'm wondering will it ever go away? Just go away, still... 


Gm 
Sometimes I feel like weeping 
F 
Awake and when I'm sleeping 
C                        Dm 
Perfecting how to put a game face on 
Gm 
This puzzle I've been keeping 
F 
Has been in hiding creeping 
C                              A 
Out the closet door, spilling out onto the floor; 



    F Am Dm                      F Am Dm   
How long will I be picking up pieces? 
    F Am Dm                    Bb     C 
How long will I be picking up my heart? 



        F                       C 
Listen, I'll be as honest as I feel 
                  Dm 
I'm getting more paranoid, and I'm hearing things 
          Bb                   F 
And they never turn out real. 
                                   C 
It feels like my heart is made of pure steel, 
              Dm 
It's just so heavy all the time. 

           
F                                          C 
I'm scared of death, I'm scared of living 
   Dm                                 Bb 
I gave up on the past 'cause it's unforgiving 
F 
I misplaced my trust, 
            C 
I Watched my word begin to rust, 
       Dm 
I'm that balloon about to bust 
           Bb 
I need a place for reliving still -  


Gm 
Sometimes I feel like weeping 
F 
Awake and when I'm sleeping 
C                        Dm 
Perfecting how to put a game face on 
Gm 
And This puzzle I've been keeping 
F 
Has been in hiding creeping 
C                              A 
Out the closet door, spilling out onto the floor; 



    F Am Dm                    F Am Dm   
How long will I be picking up pieces? 
    F Am Dm                       C     Dm 
How long will I be picking up my heart? 
                 C     Dm 
Be Picking up my heart? (x3) 
                 Bb    Dm 
Picking up my heart? 

Bb F C (4x) 


     F  Am  Dm 
How long (in another space in time) will I be 
               F  Am  Dm    
Picking up pieces (in the corner of my mind?) 
    F  Am  Dm 
How long (it's getting oh so hard to find) will I be 
              F  Am  Dm 
Picking up pieces (in the corner of my mind?) C'mon... 

F  Am  Dm 
Whoah... But I still walk on...
