[Verso 1]

 
 F#m            A 
Your girlfriend wants to take me to yoga class 
F#m           A 
And you want me to stop cutting myself in the bathtub 
 F#m           A 
The hospital wants to let my mother go home 
 F#m           A 
I said "I won't give consent for that over the phone" 
 F#m            A 
I smoke a big bowl in my car all alone 


[Verso 2]


 F#m            A 
I get really high And cry to a stupid song 
 F#m             A 
I work at the mall where I sell nice perfume 
 F#m           A 
I say "this one would be lovely for you" 
 F#m         A 
You corner me daily in the kitchenette 
 F#m             A 
You say "have you eaten enough today yet?" 
 F#m             A 
And I always say yes and we know that I'm lying 
 F#m         A 
I let you fall silent We pretend that you're trying 
 F#m          A 
"I don't know what to do with you" You say it often 
 F#m          A 
Almost sounds like a good excuse For doing nothing 


[Verso 3]


 F#m             A 
I call the police on my mom again 
 F#m           A 
I bring her yoga pants Without the drawstring in 
 F#m             A 
I buy another plant for the corner of my room 
 F#m          A 
I don't think it'll make it but I guess I'm speaking too soon 


[Verso 4]


 F#m             A 
Inexplicably I keep waking up 
 F#m           A 
I keep walking forward into the dusk 
 F#m              A 
I'm absolving I'm forgiving I don't care who's deserving 
 F#m             A 
I'll come later with a hammer and break open my burden
