[Verse 1]
A E You spent your whole life trying to be tough F#m E6 Cause your parents married pain to love A E But you go all white at the sight of blood F#m E6 And Jesus knows that you've seen enough
[Intrumental break]
A E F#m E
A E Something happened back when you were young F#m E6 It kills you but you won't tell me what it was A E Sleeping on the floor in your grandma's room F#m E6 Too tired to cry, too weak to even move
[Chorus]
A You're so scared you'll make the mistakes you E Had to watch your daddy make that F#m E6 Took your mama and everything away A But it's not your fault and I don't need help E F#m Cause these bruises on my body, I gave to myself E6 You're allowed to take care of yourself
[Verse 2]
A E 25 and you're still crying in your sleep F#m E6 Scared the world is out to get you A E And you've tried every bottle but you're in too deep F#m E6 Cause you don't know any better, how could you? A And the fear is there when we're in your bed E F#m And I start to cry and you think it's something you did E6 But baby I'm alright
I'm alright...
[Chorus]
A You're so scared you'll make the mistakes you E Had to watch your daddy make that F#m E6 Took your mama and everything away A But it's not your fault and I don't need help E F#m Cause these bruises on my body, I gave to myself E6 You're allowed to take care of yourself
[Bridge]
A E Last night I dreamed that you had gone away F#m E6 Woke up in tears and stayed in bed all day A E And I'm terrified that I'll lose everyone I have F#m E6 That I'll watch them leave and wait but they won't come back
[Chorus]
A You're so scared you'll make the mistakes you E Had to watch your daddy make that F#m E6 Took your mama and everything away A But it's not your fault and I don't need help E F#m Cause these bruises on my body, I gave to myself E6 You're allowed to take care of yourself
[Outro]
A E F#m E6 x2
