I Exist I Exist I Exist

G6                       C7M 
Baby please, it's the way you speak 
G6                    C7M 
Forming words so easily 
          G6                    C7M 
And I think of the way you think 
G6                             C7M 
It keeps me from falling asleep 
          G6              C7M 
In that grave I call a bed 
G6                             C7M 
Until you called me up and said 

G6 
I haven't stopped crying 

My father's been drinking 
  C7M 
I need a place to stay 
G6 
I don't want to be here 

He's saying the words that 
   C7M 
He promised he would never say 

   G6                  C7M 
That liquid he consumes 
G6                      C7M 
Makes him speak the truth 
            G6                    C7M 
And I said no, it's not that at all 
                    G6                      C7M 
It's that bottle of lies for a troubled heart 
                     G6                    C7M 
It's standing on the edge of a mountain top 
G6                         C7M 
Screaming anything he wants 
      G6 
Like: Look at me,Look at me, Look at me, Look at me, Look at me 
                      C7M 
Look at me, Look at me, Look at me 
        G6                                        C7M 
Because I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist, I exist 

      G6                   C7M 
I remember the way you shook 
          G6 
It's a shame that we're not soulmates 
             C7M 
'Cause if I didn't know better 

I'd say this feels pretty good 
     G6                  C7M 
And how could I be scared? 
        G6                          C7M 
When I stretch and feel you're there 
                  G6 
So shut your mouth 
               C7M 
'Cause these words will speak themselves 
          G6 
I can feel them in these blankets 
                C7M 
And they're surrounding your figure 

Embraced in the quilts 
    G6                   C7M 
And I can't help but think 
           G6                 C7M 
You're my missing puzzle piece 

 G6  C7M 

        G6 
I wake up in the hallway, I'm looking for sunlight 
      C7M 
With rays that will cure me of the 

Pain that keeps my lungs tight 
G6 
Ignoring the voices and feelings that tell me 
    C7M 
To get out of this house 
G6                   C7M 
I can't make them stop 
 G6                 C7M 
I'm just like my mom 

               G6                      C7M 
And you said no, these demons will fall 
G6                         C7M 
You're so precious to us all 
           G6                  C7M 
And I said I can't do this alone 
G6                     C7M 
I still need you to hold 
     G6 
So don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go 
                                      C7M 
Don't let go, don't let go, don't let go 

             G6 
Because I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid 
                                C7M 
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid,  I'm afraid
