Don’t take it so hard; we’re not against you.
It’s really not that bad,
It’s just that they want you to think that it is.[C/F#]
I’m over the past, but I can’t defend you,
So I’ll say it one last time
Before I leave that life behind.

It’s easy to abuse
The friends that end up screwed.
Just [D/F#]take one for the team.

I hope you’re happy.

It’s hard to believe that once there was something,
Something to be said
For sinking the ship that I wanted to sail.[C/F#]
You don’t have a clue, you never can,
And never will, but I’ll suck it up and lie
With all my dignity and pride.
These words can’t say it all.
You’re feeling ten feet tall,
And [D/F#]stronger everyday.

I’ve learned to walk,
I’ve learned to walk away.

So easy to confuse
Another lie that’s true.
You’ll [D/F#]find out for yourself.
I hope you’re happy.

Little children standing in the hall,
Never taught them anything at a[(F#)]ll.
And if you were young again, would you do it different?
Or make your way just trying to find the fiction in the fact of life?

Try to believe the words that you said to me are true,
But something else assures me I’m not through.
Been denied so many times, and so I’m told to
Sit back and ignore the truth, enjoy the ride, yeah.

Never took a hand with her to school.
Take a guess and tell us who’s the f[(F#)]ool.
And you’re not supposed to be my responsibility;
One day you’ll regain your pride, and realize life is too short not
to try.
Does anybody care?
Does anybody…[(F#)]
Does anybody care?

Verse

Lost yourself it didn’t take much time

it wasn’t hard to find

now that you’ve been to the edge,

stood and looked down from the top

and found it wasn’t worth the pain,

a selfish way to say

I’m the only one that counts and

happiness is out

Chorus

Really insecure, disguising what’s inside

you’re not cool to me

I won’t wait in the back of the line

verse

No one knows exactly where you went

the money has been spent

sent the search team,

I’m about to call it off

feel you close when you’re so far away,

a straw inside your vein

as it sucks the life from you

I watch it all come true

Chorus

When it happens like a million

times before

I won’t close my mind but I refuse to

open the door

Bridge

Feel the world caving in you had so

much left to [D5/G#]give

Is it worth the tide you turned

all the people that you burned?

So long to your little friend this is how

the story ends

I’m the only one cause nobody cared anyway

Verse

Hate yourself just like I thought you would,

it didn’t do us good

I’m afraid of being right so before we

say goodbye to you come down from off your throne

and let the truth be known

we all know you’re not insane,

it’s how you play this game

Chorus

Really insecure, disguising what’s inside

it’s not cool to me when the game is a fake suicide

when the game is a fake suicide

when the game is a fake suicide
