Bbm
Overwhelmed, overworked, overpaid
I’m on top of the world sitting pretty on a stack
Gdim
But the static still cracks in my veins
At the bottom of the universe
I’m feeling all the weight
[Verse 1]
Bbm
People die for this
People lie for this
People suck and fuck some guy for this
Gdim
Pay the toll for this
Sell their soul for this
Play my part, but what's my role in this?
Bbm
I’m not built for this
All the guilt of this
Bbsus2
And I don’t think I can deal with this
Gdim
I'm too old for this
Gonna fold from this
Gbmaj7
People starvin’ and I get gold for this?
[Verse 2]
Bbm
You all chalk me up as some whiney fuck
Bbsus2
Who’s stressed by success like my life sucks?
Gdim
I get it, I know, it's such a conundrum
Gbmaj7
I get what I want but I can’t have much fun with it
Bbm
It’s not the fame or the money I’m yearnin'
Bbsus2
I don’t give a fuck about what I’ve been earnin'
Gdim
But each day I wake up more blessed and I’m learnin'
Gbmaj7
Of all of these people, I’m least to deserve it
Bbm
I don’t deserve it
Ab
I try to be perfect
I’ll never be perfect
Eb
I’m not worth it
Keep lookin’ for answers I swear I’ve been searchin’
Bbm
But come up short, and I give up quick
Ab
‘Cause if I found it I think I'd be scared of it
Eb
You don’t see the scene that's behind the screen
And I urge you all to beware of it
[Verse 3]
Bbm
It’s an interesting dichotomy
Of monetized sincerity
Stir up my insecurity
Bbsus2
With constant uncertainty
Gdim
Generation of anxiety
The “Look at me” Society
Dubiety of piety
Gbmaj7
The gods all suffer silently
Bbm
I’m sorry for my obsession with attention
Bbsus2
I have ungodly fear of rejection
Gdim
My apprehension and objection is the viral infection
Gbmaj7
Of dollars and followers in place of affection
Bbm
What I need is a human connection
Bbsus2
Not blue light and a foggy reflection
Gdim
Of my misconception of my own perception
Gbmaj7
A result of way too much introspection
[Bridge]
Bbm
They find my disinterest interesting
My depression, a funny thing
Bbm/A
My decline is relatable
People love that I hate myself
Bbm/Ab
People love that I hate myself
Yeah, they love that I hate myself
Bbm/G
People love that I hate myself
People love that I hate myself
[Verse 4]
N.C.
I climbed out of my head
N.C.
And watched myself implode
N.C.
A thought without a body
N.C.
Ought to be a shot to take a load off
N.C.
My brain is poisoned
N.C.
And I’m searching for the antidote
N.C.
But every time I find it
N.C.
My defenses scream
N.C.
“Oh, no you don’t!”
N.C.
Woah
N.C.
But it's fine
N.C.
No, really I'm fine
N.C.
It’s just a matter of time
N.C.
You’ll cross the line
N.C.
And lose your mind
N.C.
From time to time
Bb5
I’m not crazy
B5
But I feel crazy all of a sudden
C5
In a city never seeing
Snow or rain or leaves in autumn
Bb5
Lose yourself in seasons
B5
Not rememberin' that you forgot ‘em
C5
Knocking on my door
I can’t confront ‘em so I lock 'em out
[Verse 5]
Bb
But I don’t mind
Cm Eb
No, I really don’t mind (I really don't mind)
Bb
'Cause believe it or not
Cm
It feels good to be forgot
Eb
From time to time (Forgot from time to time)
Bb
So, forget me
Cm Eb
And please, God, forgive me
Bb
If you feel a touche underwhelmed
Cm Eb
By all my overwhelming negativity (Negativity)
[Otro]
Bb Cm
Who am I and when?
Eb
When’s my workday end?
Bb Cm
And where does "me" begin?
Eb
Are these my colleagues or my friends?
Bb
On a scale from ten to one
Cm
Do you hate who I’ve become?
Eb
‘Cause I hate who I’ve become
