Chords

[Verse 1]
            A#m
Tonight the monsters in my head

              G#       F#
Are screaming so damn loud

            A#m
But I built walls so high

        C#                F#
So they never even make a sound
[Pre-Chorus 1]
       A#m
It's a mask, it's a lie

         G#                  F#
It's the only home I've ever known

            D#m
Cause being who I really am

         F#
Has only left me more alone
[Chorus]
A#m  F#   C#
I am not okay

      F#          C#
And I need you to see it

A#m       F#      C#
I have so much to say

    F#        C#
And no one to hear it

D#m               Fm
The reason I keep quiet

                 F#
With so much at stake

D#m                  Fm
I always feel like a burden

               F#
Let it silence me

D#m                Fm
You'll never understand

                   F#
Why its so hard to say

         A#m
I'm not okay
[Verse 2]
               A#m                       G#
I wish I had a scar, had a bruise on the surface

            F#
Any kind of proof

          A#m                       C#            F#
That everything I feel is more than just some sad excuse

            A#m
My life's invisible abuse

           G#                Fm
I'm either judged or have to hide

          D#m
The only symptom you can see

           F#
Is I don't wanna be alive
[Chorus]
A#m  F#  C#
I am not okay

      F#          C#
And I need you to see it

A#m       F#      C#
I have so much to say

    F#        C#
And no one to hear it

D#m               Fm
The reason I keep quiet

                 F#
With so much at stake

D#m                  Fm
I always feel like a burden

               F#
Let it silence me
D#n Fm You'll never understand
                   F#
Why its so hard to say
[Pre-Chorus 2]
           G#
I'll never have the words

  A#m                F#
I can't explain this hell

               G#
But what if it kills me

     A#m         C#
If I keep it to myself

    F#
To myself
[Chorus]
A#m  F#  C#
I am not okay

      F#          C#
And I need you to see it

A#m       F#      C#
I have so much to say

    F#        C#       D#m
And no one to hear it

         C#
I'm not okay

         F#
I'm not okay

          C#
I'm never safe

           D#m
It's not a phase

     A#m     C#
If I finally break

                F#
Would you still stay
[Outro]
            A#m
Tonight the monsters in my head

              C#      F#
Are screaming so damn loud
