Chords

[Intro]
        D                      E C#m A E
I guess being clever's just my safety net
[Verse 1]
A
I hide behind my cadence, I hide behind the wall

  C#m                               B
I built so tall the weakness never spills

A
I hide all of my burdens, I twist my words so well

  C#m                                B
I'm breaking, but the lie is what I sell
[Chorus]
       C#m
If I'm clever, you might never understand

            A
I feel like death and me are walking hand in hand

         B                          A                        C#m
When my happiness is hanging by a thread, I finally feel content

        D                      E C#m A E
I guess being clever's just my safety net
[Verse 2]
A
I tell you I feel better, I tell you I can sleep

  C#m                               B
I hope that it will bring a sense of peace

A
But all the nights are getting darker, the day becomes so bleak

  C#m                               B
Another day I'm conscious is another day I bleed
[Chorus]
       C#m
If I'm clever, you might never understand

            A
I feel like death and me are walking hand in hand

         B                          A                        C#m
When my happiness is hanging by a thread, I finally feel content

       C#m
I'm so messed up and inconsistent in my head

            A                               
I feel my passing only benefits my friends

         B                          A                          C#m
When I know nothing I say matters in the end, I finally feel content

        D                      E C#m A E
I guess being clever's just my safety net
[Bridge]
A
I'm out of ways to answer, I'm out of metaphors

  C#m                               B
I finally got so sick, there is no cure

A
I'm out of ways to answer, I'm out of metaphors

  C#m                               B
I finally got so sick, there is no cure
[Chorus]
       C#m
If I'm clever, you might never understand

            A
I feel like death and me are walking hand in hand

         B                          A                        C#m
When my happiness is hanging by a thread, I finally feel content

       C#m
I'm so messed up and inconsistent in my head

           A                               
I feel my passing only benefits my friends

         B                          A                          C#m
When I know nothing I say matters in the end, I finally feel content

        D                      E C#m A E
I guess being clever's just my safety net

        D                      E C#m A E
I guess being clever's just my safety net
