[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Em C G
Dear God, please hear me out
D Em
I know it's been a couple years
C G D
Since I've reached out and said hello
Em C G
I bet you're wondering why I keep
D Em
Obsessing on and stressing all the little things
C G D Em
When I should be living life and soaking up the memories
C G
I know I've been selfish, I have
D Em
No excuse to give you, it's true
C G
Hanging by a thread's how I live
D Em
I don't know why, but I feel more comfortable
[Chorus]
C
Living in my agony
G D Em
Watching my self-esteem go up in flames, acting like I don't
C
Care what anyone else thinks
G D Em
When I know truthfully that that's the furthest thing from how I
C G
Feel, but I'm too proud to open up and ask you
D Em
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
C G
The truth is I need help, but I just can't imagine
D
Who I'd be if I was happy
[Verse 2]
Em
Yeah, been this way so long
C
It feels like something's off when I'm not depressed
G
I got some issues that I won't address
D
I got some baggage I ain't open yet
Em
I got some demons I should put to rest
C
I got some traumas that I can't forget
G
I got some phone calls I've been avoiding
D
Some family members I don't really connect with
Em
Some things I said, I wish I woulda not let slip
C
Some hurtful words that never shoulda left my lips
G
Some bridges burned, I'm not ready to rebuild yet
D
Some insecurities I haven't dealt with, yes
Em
I'll be the first to admit that I'm a lonely soul
C
And the last to admit I need a hand to hold
G
Losing hope, heading down a dangerous road
D Em
Strange, I know, but I feel most at home when I'm—
[Chorus]
C
Living in my agony
G D Em
Watching my self-esteem go up in flames, acting like I don't
C
Care what anyone else thinks
G D Em
When I know truthfully that that's the furthest thing from how I
C G
Feel, but I'm too proud to open up and ask you
D Em
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
C G
The truth is I need help, but I just can't imagine
D Em
Who I'd be if I was happy
[Bridge]
C G
Don't know what's around the bend
D Em
Don't know what my future is
C G D Em
But I can't keep on living in—
[Chorus]
C
Living in my agony
G D Em
Watching my self-esteem go up in flames, acting like I don't
C
Care what anyone else thinks
G D Em
When I know truthfully that that's the furthest thing from how I
C G
Feel, but I'm too proud to open up and ask you
D Em
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
C G
The truth is I need help, but I just can't imagine
D
Who I'd be if I was happy
[Outro]
Em C G D
Ooh ooh if I was happy
Em C G D
Ooh ooh If I was happy
Dear God, please
Hear me out, I know it's been a couple years
Since I've reached
Out and said hello, I bet you're wondering
Why I keep
Obsessing on and stressing all the little things
When I should be
Living life and soaking up the memories
I know I've been
Selfish, I have
No excuse to give you it's true
Hanging by a
Thread's how I live
I don't know why but
I feel more comfortable
Livin' in my agony
Watching my self-esteem
Go up in flames acting
Like I don't
Care what anyone else thinks
When I know truthfully
That that's the furthest thing
From how I
Feel but I'm too proud to open up and ask ya
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
The truth is, I need help, but I just can't imagine
Who I'd be if I was happy
Yeah, been this way so long, it feels like something's off
When I'm not depressed
I got some issues that I won't address
I got some baggage I ain't opened yet
I got some demons I should put to rest
I got some traumas that I can't forget
I got some phone calls I been avoidin'
Some family members I don't really connect with
Some things I said I wish I would of not let slip
Some hurtful words that never should of left my lips
Some bridges burned, I'm not ready to rebuild yet
Some insecurities I haven't dealt with, yes
I'll be the first to admit that I'm a lonely soul
And the last to admit I need a hand to hold
Losing hope
Headed down a dangerous road
Strange, I know
But I feel most at home when I'm
Livin' in my agony
Watching my self-esteem
Go up in flames acting
Like I don't
Care what anyone else thinks
When I know truthfully
That that's the furthest thing
From how I
Feel but I'm too proud to open up and ask ya
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
The truth is, I need help, but I just can't imagine
Who I'd be if I was happy
Don't know what's around the bend
Don't know what my future is
But I can't keep on livin' in
Livin' in my agony
Watching my self-esteem
Go up in flames acting
Like I don't
Care what anyone else thinks
When I know truthfully
That that's the furthest thing
From how I
Feel but I'm too proud to open up and ask ya
To pick me up and pull me out this hole I'm trapped in
The truth is, I need help, but I just can't imagine
Who I'd be if I was happy
If I was happy
If I was happy
