Growing Sideways

      G                        Bm
So I took my medication and I poured
 my trauma out
         C
On some sad-eyed middle aged man's 
overpriced new leather couch
        Em                         
And we argued about Jesus, finally 
 G
found some middle ground
           C
I said, "I'm cured"

       G                      
And I divvied up my anger into 
  Bm
thirty separate parts
          C
Keep the bad shit in my liver and 
the rest around my heart
          Em                     
I'm still angry at my parents for 
        G
what their parents did to them
             C
But it's a start

               Em              
But I ignore things, and I move 
   G
sideways
             C                   
Until I forget what I felt in the 
      G
first place
                   C               
At the end of the day I know there 
     G
are worse ways
               D  D4  D
To stay alive

                   Em        
'Cause everyone's growing and 
             G
everyone's healthy
            C                   
I'm terrified that I might never 
          G
have met me
           C                     
Oh, if my engine works perfect on 
   G
empty
               D
I guess I'll drive

         G                       
So I forgot my medication, fell into
Bm
 a manic high
         C                         
Spent my savings at a Lulu, now I'm
  C
 suffering in style
       Em                          
Why's pain so damn impatient? Ain't
            G
 like it's got a place to be
       C
Keeps rushing me

              Em               
But I ignore things, and I move 
  G
sideways
              C                  
Until I forget what I felt in the 
      G
first place

        C                 G
And if all my life was wasted
         Em                   D
I don't mind, I'll watch it go
             C              G
Yeah, it's better to die numb
                 D   D4  D
Than feel it all

        C                 G
Oh, if all my time was wasted
         Em                   D
