[Verse 1]
Em D Bm
My hands are tied
A Em
But my eyes are open
D G C
This modern denial has me broken
Em D Bm A
Nothing mystical, no hullabaloo
Em D G C
Just chemicals and no one looking down on you
[Pre-chorus]
Em D C
What am I thinking (if you're so sure it's rational)
Em D C
While the world's shrinking (but that don't make it logical)
Em D C
What am I thinking (if you say I'm just an animal)
Am Bm
I feel like I'm sinking (you can't explain away the way I feel)
[Chorus]
C G D
You're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
G/B C Em D
(They tell you 'trust your head, be like men but never feel like you're good enough)
C G D
You're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
G/B C Em D
(They wanna take our light, make us fight but never cry for the ones you love)
[Post-chorus]
Em // | D / | Bm // | A
Em D G C Em D Bm A
I'll be your warrior, your warrior
Em D G C
I'll be your warrior, your warrior, warrior
[Verse 2]
Em D Bm A
You're taking over and I'm feeling small
Em D G C
When I was a child, I knew it all
Em D Bm A
Nothing magical, no hologram behind the door
Em D G C
Just a chain reaction, but I know I'm made for more
[Pre-chorus]
Em D C
What am I thinking (if you're so sure it's rational)
Em D C
While the world's shrinking (but that don't make it logical)
Em D C
What am I thinking (if you say I'm just an animal)
Am Bm
I feel like I'm sinking (you can't explain away the way I feel)
[Chorus]
C G D
You're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
G/B C Em D
(They tell you 'trust your head, be like men but never feel like you're good enough)
C G D
You're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
G/B C Em D
(They wanna take our light, make us fight but never cry for the ones you love)
C G D
And you're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
G/B C Em D
(They tell you 'trust your head, be like men but never feel like you're good enough)
C G D
You're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
G/B C Em D Em
(They wanna take our light, make us fight but never cry for the ones you love)

And you're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
G/B C Em D
(They wanna take our light, make us fight but never cry for the ones you love)
