Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]This is the song I'm too
scared [F]to [Am]write
But some of you may need [F]it tonight

[Verse 2]
[F]Oh [Am]there you were,
[F]heart mad[Dm]e of gla[Am]ss
[G]Fragile little [Dm]thing, shattered too fast
[Am]Tried to pick the pieces up up up
And [G]that's the way you
[Am]first [Dm]got cut [Am]cut cut
Devil drew you in,
[F]you didn't let it show
[G]Didn't want the others to
[Dm]ever have to know
That [Am]you were getting hooked o[F]n up up up
And all you [G]had to do was [F]cut [Am]cut cut
[F]You carved

[Verse 3]
a special [G]place for your [Am]pain
So [F]it came back to hurt
[G]you every nig[Am]ht
You [F]closed your eyes and
[G]wished it all [Am]away
Until [F]you disappeared
[G]under the[Am] knife

[Verse 4]
[Am]You knew the deal, n[F]o one gives a damn
Just another [G]needy kid, sob [Dm]story in hand
Keep your [Am]secrets covered [F]up up up
We don't [G]need another [Dm]cut cut cut
[Am]But you couldn't h[F]ide a
heart made of glass
You [G]put yourself together with
[Dm]all the strength you had
[Am]You were finally f[F]ed up up up
Finally [G]had to scream [Dm]enough

[Verse 5]
You [F]carved a special [G]place for your [Am]pain
[F]So it came back to [G]hurt
you every [Am]night
You [F]closed your eyes and
[G]wished it all [Am]away
Un[F]til you disappeared under
[Am]the knife
[F][G]

[Verse 6]
[Dm]
[F]Listen- [Am]I know it's simpli
[F]fied from the other side
[Dm]It's easy [G]to gloss[Dm] over all the
messy reasons [F]why
[Am]And it's easy to for[F]get
where you've been
I [G]guess that's what the scars are for,
[Dm]huh?
When [F]we [Am]were [F]15 we wouldn't
dare let that shit be seen
[G]But now it seems
[Dm]mutalation's gone mainstream
[Am]I see you at my shows,
[F]scarred up from head to toe
Like [G]there's no point even
[Dm]trying not to let it show
Cause [Am]we all know,
emo [F]kids like to hurt themselves
[G]Too many feelings and
[Dm]not enough self control
And I [Am]mean, does this mess
[F]any of the rest of you
[G]It's an epidemic and we're [Dm]cool with it,
don't question it
But it bothers [Am]me,
our scars [F]are currency by which we're measured
Like [G]let the record show who let it
[Dm]slip and who held it together
[Am]Cutters and burners and
[F]honorable mentions
[G]Posers who still cut themselves
up for the attention
[Am]I don't

[Verse 7]
[F]care your intentions,
I [G]just want you to know
My [Am]self-hatred never never took
me where I wanted to go
And at the [F]end of the day,
you know I [G]still had to face
That I can [Am]pick at the pain,
but can't cut it away
And you know what [F]else I can't do is
give you [G]ten good reasons not to
I've [Am]racked my brain for clever sayings
of all the things you ought to do
[F]But you know,
I think if there was [G]something I could say
They'd have [Am]thrown it on a brochure-
and sent you on your way
So I'll keep doing what I always [F]do: drag my
heart to the piano and make it sing for [Am]you
I'll keep doing what I [G]always do: drag my heart to the piano and let [Am]it sing

[Interlude 1]
for you
[Am][F][G][Dm]
[Am][Dm][F][G][Dm][G]
[Am][F][G][Dm][G]
[Dm][Am][F]

[Verse 8]
Drag [F]my heart [G]to the piano
and let [Dm]it sing for you
