[Verse 1]
Em
Is this just gettin' older?
D G
I can't get away from this rain
C
I'm statin' to think that it's me
Em D
And I wanna just create things
Bm C
But the longer it takes, I feel drink up
Em
Remember a day I've been sober
D G
Not in a place to take blame
C
Any more way I might break
Em D
Tell me, do you feel the same?
Bm C
Guess we all go the same way
D
I'm in a bit of a mess here
D
Count to ten and hope to disappear
Em
I never did my homework
D
Could I have been more than this?
C Em D
Findin' a way to exist within a world with no risk
Bm C
Forcin' a shoe that won't fit
Em
I spend most the days stoned
D G
And makin' excuses for it
C
Sayin', "It'll help to write this"
Em D
But on the real, I'm tight-lipped
Bm C
Shootin' the shot that I'll miss
[Pre-Chorus]
D
And it's so far from it
D
Why the hell am I still here?
[Chorus]
G
This is not the end of our lives
D C
This is just a bump in the ride
G
And I know that it will be alright
D C
And if it's nothin', we're fucked, aren't we?
G D C
I can't help myself but cry every time that I realise
G
Maybe I'll never find my smile
D C
But who's to blame? Well, that's on me
D
Well, that's on me, well, that's on me
[Verse 2]
Em
Now that the weather is colder
D G
Nothin' is maskin' this pain
C
The summer was here, but won't stay
Em D
And we are inside, like, all day
Bm C
Regrettin' the things that we say
Em
And it takes a toll, yeah
D G
The conversation won't end
C
Bein' a rock for your friends
Em D
Cracks in the surface don't mend
Bm C
We only break, we don't bend
D
And you think it was so clear
D
But I can't see nothin' but the fear
Em
I'm feelin' so bloated
D G
Thinkin' the silent won't do
C
My ass will open up too
Em D
Lockin' myself in my room
Bm C
Hopin' that this will end soon
Em
And no one will notice
D G
What I will put myself through
C
'Cause they will hate themselves too
Em D
Isn't it mad what we do?
Bm C
Pretendin' to win, but just lose
[Pre-Chorus]
D
And it's so far from here
D
Why the hell am I still here?
[Chorus]
G
This is not the end of our lives
D C
This is just a bump in the ride
G
And I know that it will be alright
D C
And if it's nothin', we're fucked, aren't we?
G D C
I can't help myself but cry every time that I realise
G
Maybe I'll never find my smile
D C
But who's to blame? Well, that's on me
D
Well, that's on me, well, that's on me
[Bridge]
Am
Too many things on my mind
G D
To process moments of life
Am
That, somedays, I lose my drive
G D
And some, can't control the fire
Am
I move where the things take time
G D
But I'm not a patient guy
Am
Maybe if I wait, I'll find
G D
Resemblance and peace of mind
[Verse 3]
Em
This is just gettin' older
D G
Runnin' away from my past
C
Knowin' the comet won't last
Em D
Bein' a mouse in this grass
Bm C
Feedin' the snakes behind us
Em
And I'm searchin' for closure
D G
But nothin' is healin' these scars
C
When I open up, they just laugh
Em D
Sayin' that they had just half
Bm
That nothin' will ever be dark
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Is it new me, new year
D
Or just the same old blues fear?
[Chorus]
G
This is not the end of our lives
D C
This is just a bump in the ride
G
And I know that it will be alright
D C
And if it's nothin', we're fucked, aren't we?
G D C
I can't help myself but cry every time that I realise
G
Maybe I'll never find my smile
D C
But who's to blame? Well, that's on me
D
Well, that's on me, well, that's on me
Well, that's on me

[Verse 1]
Is this just gettin' older?
I can't get away from this rain
I'm startin' to think that it's me
And I wanna just create things
But the longer it takes, I feel drained
Can't remember a day I've been sober
Not in a place to take blame
Any more weight, I might break
Tell me, do you feel the same?
Guess we all go the same way
I'm in a bit of a mess here
I count to ten and I hope to disappear
I never I did my homework
Could I have been more than this?
Findin' a way to exist
Within a world with no risk
Forcin' a shoe that won't fit
I spend most the days stoned
And makin' excuses for it
Sayin', "It helped to write this"
But on the real, I'm tight-lipped
Shootin' the shot that I'll miss
[Pre-Chorus]
And it's so far from near
Why the hell am I still here?
[Chorus]
This is not the end of our lives
This is just a bump in the ride
And I know that it will be alright
And if it's not, then we're fucked, aren't we?
I can't help myself but cry every time that I realise
Maybe I'll never find my smile
But who's to blame? Well, that's on me
[Post-Chorus]
Well, that's on me, well, that's on me
[Verse 2]
Now that the weather is colder
Nothin' is maskin' this pain
The summer was here, but won't stay
And we are inside, like, all day
Regrettin' the things that we say
And it takes a toll, yeah
The conversation won't end
Bein' a rock for your friends
Cracks in the surface don't mend
We only break, we don't bend
And you'd think it was so clear
But I can't see nothin' but the fear
I'm feelin' so bloated
Thinkin' a salad won't do
Might as well open up two
Lockin' myself in my room
Hopin' that this'll end soon
And no one will notice
What I will put myself through
'Cause they will hate themselves too
Isn't it mad what we do?
Pretendin' to win, but just lose
[Pre-Chorus]
And it's so far from near
Why the hell am I still here?
[Chorus]
This is not the end of our lives
This is just a bump in the ride
And I know that it will be alright
And if it's not, then we're fucked, aren't we?
I can't help myself but cry every time that I realise
Maybe I'll never find my smile
But who's to blame? Well, that's on me
[Post-Chorus]
Well, that's on me, well, that's on me
[Bridge]
Too many things on my mind
To process moments of life
There's some days I lose my drive
Then, some, can't control the fire
I'm aware that things take time
But I'm not a patient guy
Maybe, if I wait, I'll find
Resemblance of peace of mind
[Verse 3]
This is just gettin' older
Runnin' away from our past
Knowin', the calm, it won't last
Bein' a mouse in this grass
Feelin' the snakes behind us
And I'm searchin' for closure
But nothin' is healin' these scars
When I open up, they just laugh
Sayin' if they had just half
Then nothin' would ever be dark
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it, "New me, new year"
Or just the same old blue sphere?
[Chorus]
This is not the end of our lives
This is just a bump in the ride
And I know that it will be alright
And, if it's not, then we're fucked, aren't we?
I can't help myself but cry every time that I realise
Maybe I'll never find my smile
But who's to blame? Well, that's on me
[Post-Chorus]
Well, that's on me, well, that's on me
Well, that's on me
