Tom: Em
C
It's only you to say
Em D
Your disconnected self is safe and tucked away
D
It's safe, too safe
[Verse]
C
It was a mistake to think the truth
Em D
Wasn't ever gonna change a thing
C
But it's harder now to bring it upon yourself
Em D
To think it's better this way
C
Was it only all the time I spent
Em D
Wishing for something more
C
That had sent me down the path to wondering
Em D
If anything, I was better off before?
[Pre Chorus]
C
Perspective aligned, show me the time and place
Em D
All else aside, show me what you can take
[Chorus]
C
But you're not just fading out
Em D
Of every other win that you can't count
C
You're here to see your mistakes
Em D
And be better one day
[Verse]
C
But it's the principle at stake
Em D
Having given up the time and balance of a working state;
C
The chance to grow up this way
Em D
Maybe it'll change, but I can only wait
D
Until I realize it's all the same
[Pre Chorus]
C
Was it only all the time I spent
Em D
Wishing for something more
C
That had sent me down the path to wondering
Em D
If anything, I was better off before?
[Chorus]
C
But you're not just fading out
Em D
Of every other win that you can't count
C
You're here to see your mistakes
Em D
And be better one day
C
You're the one to say
Em D
You're disconnected from the better self you made
C
But it's safe and tucked away
Em D
It's safe and tucked away
[Bridge]
C
Let's face it: you won't be the same
Em D
Is that what keeps you hanging on?
C
Or is it what's been driving you insane?
Em D
You might be better off someday...
C
Let's face it: you won't be the same
Em D
Let's face it: you won't be the same
[Chorus]
C
But you're not just fading out
Em D
Of every other win that you can't count
C
You're here to see your mistakes
Em D
And be better one day
C
You're the one to say
Em D
You're disconnected from the better self you made
C
But it's safe and tucked away
Em D
It's safe and tucked away
