verse 1: 
G 
Barter and trade 
       A 
always passive 
   Bm          G 
aggressive In spite 
of who you say you 
Bm A G 
are Smother my name 
      A        Bm 
under soil and dirt 
       G 
In the earth Widen 
              Bm  A 
the distance apart 
G 
Fuck an apology I'm 
    A         Bm 
not sorry for anything 
          G 
I've been holding back 
              Bm 
my apathy for far too 
A        G 
long You don't deserve 
         A       Bm 
what you haven't earned 
         G 
And your place in my 
heart has just 
Bm        A   D D/F# G Bm A G 
grown so small 

    D       D/F# 
I'd like to think 
            G 
that you're worth 
my time But you 
  Bm   A    G 
embody everything 
that I hate Take a 
D         D/F# 
good hard look at 
G 
what you see I've 
     Bm     A 
lost all my hope 
    G 
and all my faith 
             D 
Cause when I barely 
     D/F# 
fuck up you just 
  G 
recoil and weep 
            Bm 
What do you want 
             A 
from me? I'm just 
          G 
a kid who got in 
too deep My walls 
    D        D/F# 
are built up high 
        G 
forever bound to 
be steep I've got 
  Bm         A 
a bird's eye view 
of all the 
G 
secrets you keep
 

verse 2: 
D        G 
  Try to tell me that 
you knew from the 
start That I would 
Bm 
come to know that 
A 
most would never 
G 
enter my heart 
            D 
Because I'm colder 
         G 
than the others 
It's what sets me 
            Bm 
apart You manipulate 
    A 
and try to shine a 
G 
light on my dark 
           D   G 
But this is my life 
You should bounce 
          Bm    A   G 
and never call again 
D    G 
  No more strife Go 
find it in the souls 
       Bm A    G 
of the o--ther men 


Refrain: 
D 
  You know you're  
not as smart as 
    Bm  A G D G 
you look      I'm 
gonna take back 
         Bm  A G 
what you took 
 
    D       D/F# 
I'd like to think 
            G 
that you're worth 
my time But you 
  Bm   A    G 
embody everything 
that I hate Take a 
D         D/F# 
good hard look at 
G 
what you see I've 
     Bm     A 
lost all my hope 
    G 
and all my faith 
             D 
Cause when I barely 
     D/F# 
fuck up you just 
  G 
recoil and weep 
            Bm 
What do you want 
             A 
from me? I'm just 
          G 
a kid who got in 
too deep My walls 
    D        D/F# 
are built up high 
        G 
forever bound to 
be steep I've got 
  Bm         A 
a bird's eye view 
of all the 
G               G Bm A 
secrets you keep

Outro: 
        D 
And you did it 
D/F# G 
no   shame from 
     Bm  A G 
the start        
        D 
And you did it 
D/F# G 
no   shame from 
     Bm  A G 
the start
