        Gmaj7                         A6sus4
Built a fortress trading memories for always feeling empty

     Bm7
Lost purpose running from my pain

         Gmaj7                     A6sus4
I made a prison shining trauma and never found Nirvana

     Bm7
Sold cyanide for novacaine
[Pre-Chorus]
                 Gmaj7                A6sus4
I've learned that there is no healing in not feeling anything

Bm7
 I'm just a cage of skin that threw away the key

Gmaj7                A6sus4
 To fall apart right now that'd feel like ecstasy but

Bm7
 These walls weren't built to break
[Chorus]
                           Bm7
I really wish that I could cry right now

                           Gadd9
I really wish that I could let this out

        D
Million thoughts in my head and they all want me dead

        A
I'm too good at holding them down

                           Bm7
I really wish that I could cry right now

                            Gadd9
But I'm afraid that I've forgotten how

      D
Being numb's how I cope with the hell that I've known

        A
But the silence is making me drown

                          Gmaj7
I really wish that I could cry

A6sus4                      Bm7
 I really wish that I could cry
[Verse 2]
            Gmaj7                     A6sus4
I've had to wear a thousand faces, be fake to just replace this

Bm7
Panic that my past holds tight

          Gmaj7                             A6sus4
Now every feeling's lost it's flavor 'cause I feel so much safer

   Bm7
As frozen than in fight or flight
[Pre-Chorus]
                 Gmaj7               A6sus4
I've learned that I'd rather suffer, I would rather agonize

Bm7
 Than lose the little things just for the alibi

Gmaj7                 A6sus4
 That taste of tender love is worth a sacrifice

Bm7
 I'm living not alive
[Chorus]
                           Bm7
I really wish that I could cry right now

                           Gadd9
I really wish that I could let this out

        D
Million thoughts in my head and they all want me dead

        A
I'm too good at holding them down

                           Bm7
I really wish that I could cry right now

                            Gadd9
But I'm afraid that I've forgotten how

      D
Being numb's how I cope with the hell that I've known

        A
But the silence is making me drown
[Bridge]
   Bm7                          Gadd9
My life is full of love but I'm empty

       D                      D
'Cause I've been so afraid of remembering

       Bm7                     Gadd9
I just want to break down, I'm ready

   D      A
So let me please
[Chorus]
                           B5
I really wish that I could cry right now

                           G5
I really wish that I could let this out (Let this out)

        D5
Million thoughts in my head and they all want me dead

        A5
I'm too good at holding them down

                           B5
I really wish that I could cry right now (Cry right now)

                            G5
But I'm afraid that I've forgotten how (Forgotten how)

      D5
Being numb's how I cope with the hell that I've known

        A
But the silence is making me drown
N.C. I really wish that I could cry
